Hi Paul and welcome.
I have not read all the replies,but i have several K1000 cameras in the Lowepro and
really
like them.
I used the 80-200 f 4.5-5.6 for a number of years and got great results from it. Its
not
overly
expensive and should be worth checking out.
I also have the SMC A 70-210 F4 which works well and does a decent job at macro to. I
have
the M 135
f 3.5 and find i dont mind that one for closeups.
These cameras are little tank.I think you;ll like it.
