So would I, perhaps. I already have a FA 28-105 that I purchased on the Marketplace here for not much more than $100 that could be my primary lens until I could purchase something else, and I have several totally manual lenses I could also use.

I got my K-1 specifically for use with manual lenses. It’s the Pathology that causes the subsequent purchases.

I'm sure that you can of other things to add (in new posts) rather than "gimme".

maybe substitute for the "gimme" the phrase "gimme because it will make me a better photographer".

Or, if you don't believe that it will MAKE you a better photographer, you could use the phrase "because it will encourage me to increase my skills to match its tremendous capability".

**TedH42** · 08-27-2018, 07:31 PM
