I still have my K-1000 and its SMC Pentax-A 50mm f/2-22. Perhaps I
should experiment with the 50 on the K-70 - it seems to get generally
favorable reviews.
You might be able to pick up an old copy of lightroom 5 or 6 for
pennies on the dollar. But the key thing is to shoot raw, and you
can always go back and re-edit your files later.
I've been shooting only raw since day 1, so I will keep an eye out. I
see that I can get 6.14 new for $149 which is better than I expected.
Since each frame basically only costs you time, then there is little
downside to experiment with various filters, both physical and digital.
I have been doing a fair amount of experimentation just getting used
to the body, which I've only had for three months. I've barely begun
to experiment with the priority modes.
