That sounds pretty close to my plans, with a few differences because my partner will probably share the kit to some extent: * 16-50 * 18-135 * 60-250 * 100mm macro One reason I'm getting the 18-135 is that it matches the range of my P7100 and therefore is my "comfort" fallback. Plus it means that when both of us are using the bodies, neither of us is locked out. The 16-50 felt reasonably comfortable as a walkaround, in the end, or I'd probably bring along the 35mm for backup. Maybe I still will. ;-) -- Hugs and backrubs -- I break Rule 6 http://rule6.info/ <*> <*> <*> Help a hearing-impaired person: http://rule6.info/hearing.html -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
