Yeah, that'll be a little annoying, but workable. Would be much more annoying if I was taking more than one tak with other k mount lenses though. If I find a decent looking 28mm K-mount in NYC I'll grab one, I imagine it won't be hard to find. I live in Edmonton, Canada, and pickings for old/second-hand lenses are slim unless you get lucky on craiglist/kijiji. Will be nice to have a look in proper camera shops in much bigger cities!

Wow, thanks for all the feedback everyone! Seems like taking the 135 with the 28 and 50 is the most popular option here, I guess the adapter isn't too much of a hassle. Or I could always take the K 55 instead of the Tak 50, and that way just leave the adapter on the 28. IQ haven't noticed much too difference between the 55 and the 50, and half a stop isn't gonna get me that much farther at night I think. From my understanding the K 55 is nearly identical to the takumar 55 f1.8 anyway? So I imagine it must be fairly similar to the 50, just maybe less of that pretty bokeh. Anyway, cheers guys!

Hi everyone,
I'm heading off to New York and Montreal for a couple weeks and I'm planning on taking my ME Super and 2-3 lenses with me. I haven't done much travel photography before, but I'd like to keep things light, and take up as little space as possible. I imagine most of what I'll be doing will be street photography. I'm choosing between the following:
-Super Tak 50mm f/1.4
-SMC Tak 28mm f/3.5
-Auto Tak 35mm f/3.5
-Pentax F 35-70mm f/4
-Pentax K 55 f/1.8
-Pentax M 135 f/3.5
I was thinking of either sticking with the 50mm and 28mm taks, or the three k-mount lenses. I figure not switching out the m42 adapter would be kind of nice. What sort of kit would you all suggest?
