Impressive collection . Consider joining the Single In or Daily In group so you can show off the fruits of your daily image making.

Those tags are a neat idea. I've more than once grabbed a pouch in my cupboard thinking it was one lens, but it was another and once in a while I have to cycle through more than one to get the one I actually wanted. Might try this

Well, 110 purchases in 7 months certainly is a pretty bad case of LBA, though probably not unmatched on this forum.
Hope you can enjoy this fine gear now

(almost) guilty as charged as this is how I act upon everything I put my hands on. 🤪

Thanks! It’s easier for me on my KP and camera users groups on Facebook

Bit guilty of LBA but I purchased HD Pentax-FA 35mm F2 for the soon to come K1ii Ltd since the 2.8/35 Macro DA Ltd is not compatible and the Sigma 1.4/31 Art is "may be compatible" according to reviews with some vignetting and probably without hood which I HATE. I purchased the 2/35 HD cause I love low light shooting EVEN THOUGH I am in negotiation to purchased the 31 and 43 and 77 Limited as a package for the K1ii at a killer deal; even if their external condition and colors are so so.

What can I say. I am a mad pentaxian.

Nice collection
I too have a collection, only mine is canon - sorry!
In my defence I just picked up a K10 with 2 pentax zooms…baby steps.

As for my canon stuff..
31 bodies
100+ canon lenses
A dozen canon speedlites

Need I go on 😂

It’s a sickness 😳

Question on your spreadsheet, what's the column between Weight and Length? O with vertical line through it?

It's the Phi, the Φ ie the diameter of the lens.

Thank you. I got that it was Phi, just didn't know you used it for lens Diameter. I am adding a few of your columns to my spreadsheet.

Personally I’d not share my email address on such a public forum,might be wiser to offer to PM the spreadsheets?

Congrats on your extensive (expensive) collection.

We are a family. I don’t feel that there’s any danger for anyone to have my Apple email. Thanks for the advice though; I truly appreciate your concern but I’m on the www since 1993
