OTOH, if you already had a perpetual license version of either one of
them, those still work. I've got CS6 Extended on my computer & that's
what I use.

I find I’ll grab mine rather than my FA50/1.4 unless I need that extra bit of

Im actually content with my gear. I really like my K-5 and have no
desire to buy a newer body.
I do wish that my 17-70 was weatherproof, or that my wifes 18-85 was
wider at the short end. Oh, and that my 80-320 was sharper.

Just my 2-cents, even though I agree - to each our own - so go ahead and
ask yourselves or your friend "What Pentax gear is on your shopping (or

I'd like to have a backup K-1 body. More than that I'd like more ability
to actually get out and use my cameras. I've been kind of stuck inside
(housebound) here for a while.

I shoot 100 percent of my studio work, and about 99 percent of location
work, with Pentax. It's mostly the K1, with occasional K3 sightings, the
bulk of the shots with either the FA50 1/4 or the old 77 Ltd. Other
lenses like the FA35/2 and the FA20-35/4 ride along for use when

My preferred lens is the 55-300 PLM, that is very useful for butterflies
and dragonflies.
For this I had to buy the K-70.
The reasons are:
- my K-1 is losing too much resolution with this lens.
- I will never buy a K3-III while I use live view in many situations.
- KP not being available.

The 24-70/2.8 is my most used “normal” lens. It’s a reliable workhorse and
quite sharp even wide open. I too would like the K3-3, but at my age I can’t
spend like I once did, so my K-3 and K-1 will suffice.
