I do a fairly wide variety of pro work for a number of clients. I wouldn't trade my Pentax glass for Nikon. With a DA 12-24, and the DA* 16-50. 50-135 and 60-250, I'm covered for just about anything. But I keep an A 400/5.6 for rare occasions when I need really long reach. I have some faster primes as well but with the high ISO capability of the K5 and the superb performance of the DA* zooms, I haven't had to use them since I relegated my K7 to backup status. Paul
