Keeping in mind that I have a K100, a K10, a K20, a PZ-1P, three LX

full frame lenses left, a 67 135mm Macro left, a Pentax cassette
loader for the 250 frame back for the LX, and a very small freezer
full of bricks and boxes and 100 ft rolls of 35mm and 120 film, and
sheet film in 3 sizes. And don't forget, I'm 66 yrs. old, and
statistics say will live only another ten years at best unless I
lose 80 pounds and start a program of vigorous daily exercise, in
which case I'll most likely live an additional one or two!
What would a PDML'r do?
Replace my rarely used 67 gear? Y N
Forget it.
Replace my great 35mm lenses? Y N
Only if you intend to use them.
Buy new DA* optics for Digital Y N
and sell my LXs and PZ-1p?
Might as well cut down the load ...
Sell all the gear I now own and Y N
get a Canon body + 2 lenses?
If you like Canon equipment.
Sell everything and invest it all in Y N
the stock market?
Why not just build a bonfire?
Sell everything, and spend it all Y N
on hookers?
Hmm. A vigorous 66 year old man, eh?
Take up drink as a final solution? Y N
You'll only do it for the flavor, I suspect.
Seriously, unless you're just into collecting, why burden yourself
with so much stuff?
