I'll go with Bill's advice here. Using a prime lens can force you to use your eyes and legs to get the picture you want, and the quality is almost universally better. I just got back some family shots (my 1-year old twin grand-daughters, again!), during the taking of which I'd switched lenses to a M200/4 - there is a marked improvement in the quality of the images, even at 4x6 print size. I don't think the lenses you are using now are good quality at all, and a change to a different camera system would not help, IMHO, because Pentax glass is about as good as it gets.
