I saw that in the reviews but 680g + camera is a lot of weight around the neck without a separate carry-case of some kind. I managed to live with a 900g Makinon in the 80s, argh decisions decisions.

Exactly which lenses he has was a slow, unfolding process. I kept asking for pics of the fronts of the lenses, and he kept sending phone-camera blurry shots of the tops instead. I *deduced* the K-55 from what I could see of the aperture ring - I thought it was an -M at first. I was hoping hoping hoping that one of the lenses would be a A or M and 35mm focal length or lower. What I don't get is why this person would have 50 and 55mm primes and two zooms that also overlap each other in focal length. The seller seems to know nothing about cameras; I hope it's not stolen stuff, always a concern with used.
I think once I sort out pic hosting I'll post comparative shots in this thread of the K 55mm F1.8 against those of my lowly M-50mm F2 - my copy of the 50mm M seems to get very sharp at F2.8.
