Originally posted by Jeff I'm thinking of adding a KP as a smaller K-1 'lite' to my setup, as a less bulky camera for bike rides and walks. I'd really like to know if anyone uses these two bodies interchangeably and if so, how do you find this in practice?
I'll use the lenses I have and also get another 35 2.8 macro that I really miss, having sold it to my brother for peanuts.
I can get a KP and kit lens (which I'll sell unless someone convinces me otherwise) for £749 new. I'm aware that stocks won't last forever and I like the fact that the menu system is almost the same as the K-1. I have no interest in the K3iii.
Any thoughts will be most welcome!

When I had the KP it was a partner to a K-70, and the two always went to every event. After buying the K1 I sold off the KP (for reasons not pertinent here) and now pair it with the K3III or K-70, most often the former.
I know the advice is often two of at least the same format, FF/FF or APS-C/APS-C for instance, but mixing the two works great for me with mixing lens ranges so as to minimize field changes.
