I dont have a favorite combination, but my must used mix is k3 and 31Ltd for the foV

**volley** · 12-20-2015, 09:56 AM

The K3 is my favourite body ... most of the time. But the K200 still is just a lot of fun to use

.
Favourite lens: the FA 1.8/77 ltd.

Sigma super-wide II 24 mm 2.8 almost always on my K-01.

Pentax Q10 with 01 prime.

Well I do enjoy it because it is so small, yet gives me good-enough image quality in low light for personal use.

When it comes to my DSLR though... probably K-3 and DA 70 Ltd. Don't use that lens often since I also have the 50-135. In fact it hasn't come out of storage in quite a while. But it's so small and light and just snaps into focus, plus the build quality is amazing... so yeah, I do enjoy it.

I use two bodies I don't like to switch lens since my k30 and k50 I can use the same batteries

for walk around k30 with a 18-250 and k50 with 135-400

for bad weather k30 with 18-135 wr key with 55-300 wr

for low lights k30 with 28-75 f2.8 k50 with 70-200 f2.8

Definitely my k3 with either the 35 or 70 prime....I guess because that's all the gear I have. Nothing like primes!

max_pyne · 12-20-2015, 12:09 PM

K3 + FA* 28-70, love it!
K3 + A* 200 Macro

**savoche** · 12-20-2015, 01:13 PM

What I like the most to shoot? Well, the combination that gets me the shot I want

But my favourite is K-3 + FA43.

**allanmh** · 12-20-2015, 01:45 PM

My K-30+18-250mm is my travel setup.

redrockcoulee · 12-20-2015, 01:51 PM

K5iis with DA 70

500 CM with C100 planar

4X5 with 210 Symmar S

kjphilippona · 12-20-2015, 02:17 PM

K30 and DA*16-50

Na Horuk · 12-20-2015, 03:35 PM

I'll vote for something like K-01 and Pentax DFA 100mm macro. Or Samyang 14mm for the UWA perspective. Or DA 35mm f2.4 as the middle of the road everyday prime.
Then again, I don't exactly have a budget to test out a lot of gear, so this "favourite" comes from a very limited pool of gear
