Originally posted by ChristianRock Sure, I would go with Pentax again. I love my setup. I would maybe end up with different bodies and lenses tho...
Of course, but that is exactly the point. I bet no one can truly say that he/she is perfectly happy with every single piece of Pentax hardware in his possession right now. I'm sure ther is at least one ot two lenses or accessories that we regret purchasing and if we could, go back in time and undo the purchase in favor of "the one that got away".
That's the whole point of this exercise: Loyalty! I still use my *istD which at its time, was among the best if its class but now, obviously obsolete. If it gets stolen and I have the cash, that doesn't mean I will scout the world looking for a used one in good shape.
Right now, I have a dozen lenses in my arsenal, but there are four of them that haven't seen the sunlight in many years (since going full digital). SMC-A 15/3.5, FA 20/2.8, FA* 24/2 and FA 17-28. All four expensive glass when purchased new, but if I have the chance to get what I payed for them, of course my choice for replacements would probably be the DA 10-17, DA 15, and maybe tha DA 20-40 (I have the 12-24 that if "gone" it will sure be replaced for a similar one)
