Nice collection, gt6plus! And awesome blue K-01! What I like about the K-01 is that pretty much any lens looks good on it, from a tiny limited to a huge zoom.

Here are a few images of various lenses.
The Pentax M 135mm is a great lightweight prime for those long distance shots. I also like the form-factor of the 50mm f2. It is the only lens of the bunch that does not tip the K-01 forwards when resting on a flat surface. Being the least desirable of the 50mm A; it can be had pretty cheap too.
The bigger (long) push-pull type zooms are pretty useless when paired with a K-01 IMHO. Too heavy and awkward to use at arms length.
I love your wrist strap. I really need to learn how to tie those.

24-90mm lens is ideal range for APSC

100mm macro lens is perfect for live view

Thanks Na Horuk. I try to scavange what I can at flea markets or shoddy eBay listings.
Geomez thanks for the compliment. I had never weaved any paracord before but with all the tutorials out there and after some trial and error I got it. Of course not without comments from my wife. Said I should start a weaving club with the local seniors!

Here's another, probably a repost: K-01 with Pentax-M 50mm F/4 Macro and 50mm of tubes, in the shape of a de-glassed 2x teleconverter and a matching extension tube. This combo is good for about 1.5:1 macro magnification.

I think I may have the longest lens being used on a K-01.
This lot doesn't include the Shotgun Mic, or the Cokin kit.



Back to front, L to R.
400mm Formula5
2x teleconvertor,. Sigma 28-80,. Sigma 28-200,. Sigma 100-300,. PK-EF adapter ring.
Sigma 24mm, Pentax 50mm, Astron 28-70, Sigma 60-200.
The ring in front of the 50 is for the Cokin filter kit, a separate ring puts the Cokin mount on the front of the other three manual lenses.
The Astron is a re-branded Sigma AFAIK.

Love the look of this thing. It's really too bad Pentax didn't develop an in-body lens.

I'm not going to re-post all the "K-01 fashion" shots I've done in previous threads, but here's a teaser for my soon-to-be-finished-or-at-least-I'm-soon-to-be-sick-of-it review of the new SIgma Art 30/1.4.
