Originally posted by Mikesul I am mildly curious how many of us have invested in all 5 of the FF lenses released by Pentax for the K-1? I am referring to the 24-70, 15-30, 70-200, 150-450 and the 28-105.
I have all of them. Typically pre-ordered, so from the 1st day they became available.
I had the 150-450mm
long before the K-1 was available. I think before it was announced. (I pre-ordered the K-1 so I had that too from the 1st day). I used it
a lot on the K-3-series. I use the 150-450mm for aircraft in flight. I take more photos with that than all my other lenses put together, because I go to a lot of airshows, and use burst mode. It suits me perfectly; I couldn't hand-hold a heavier lens.
I think the 70-200 arrived before the K-1? I use the 70-200mm a lot for motorsports, but other things too.
The 28-105mm is on my K-1ii (upgraded from my K-1) by default, a sort of "carry around" lens, and I often use it. A super lens,
far better than the term "kit lens" might imply!
I've used the 15-30mm quite a bit lately for landscapes and interiors.
I bought the 24-70mm mainly for studio work, but I'm finding more uses for it.
(I also keep near the Samyang 12mm fisheye, and the Laowa Venus Optics 12mm zero distortion, lenses).
