There isn't any 5 pieces of gear they could offer me to give up all my current gear.

Looking at your gear on your profile... fair enough.

I'd go for the nice MF rig.
645Z, 28-45/4.5, 45-85/4.5, 150/2.8, 300/4.0

Are you writing this down, Ricoh?

What about the camera...
I said trading in all your current camera gear :-)

Same as me, but you went flash instead of TC.

Not happening.

I like what I have. I would trade some of the older stuff for some newer stuff

I'd probably go back and buy a crop sensor setup again afterward for action/adventure photos.

Ditto - my list was all things that I already have.

That's why I chose crop :-)

Yeah, since the K-3II doesn't have a flash, you've gotta have something!

If Ricoh offered to give you five pieces of camera gear for free if you gave up all your current camera gear, what 5 would it be?
Don't say something like five 645Zs to sell and get the most money, think what would you want to use?

I would say: Pentax K-3 II, HD PENTAX-D FA 150-450mm F4.5-5.6 ED DC AW, SMC Pentax-D FA 100mm F2.8 Macro WR, HD PENTAX-DA 16-85mm F3.5-5.6 ED DC WR, HD Pentax-DA AF Rear Converter 1.4x AW

Let's see what other people want!
That would work nicely for me; I'd even settle for 4, and keep my new K3 rather than the K-3 II. Those lens choices are perfect for what I'd want!

I'd take the new FF, 15-30mm f/4, 24-70mm f/2.8, 70-200mm f/2.8 and 150-450mm.

Nailed it for me, Enoeske! :-)
