These metal lens caps that go over the front of the lens and filter thread sound good. Anyone got a amazon link to them?

Just bought and still not arrived a k-70 with 18mm-135mm kit lens.
Just noticed I can buy k-70 body only and Pentax FA 28-105mm f3.5-5.6 ED DC WR lens together for only an extra £100 more. reading reviews its a better lens and will also fit on a full frame if I ever upgrade later on.
Should I stick to my 18-135mm kit lens or ring the company and change order.
Thanks all and sorry for all the questions.

Thanks everyone and went for the k70 with 18-135mm lens. Should be with me in a week. Jessops said to allow up to 10 days but were the cheapest by £200.

Just bought a k-70 and there are 3-4 different types of memory card I can use and non brand batteries you can buy (some cheap ones from amazon hold more charge).
Memory... I will get a fast uhs1 which the camera will take but will a sd/sdxc/sdhc make a difference?
Batteries... has there been any testing done on these non branded ones?
Thanks all

Why can’t you store it in your bag?

Bought it online as no retails shops stock Pentax locally. Doesn’t a filter alter the picture quality? Is there a 62mm plain clear protection filter that just protects it without effecting the camera and lens?

Just bought k-70 with 18-135mm lens after taking some advice from here.
Never owned a DSLR before and want to know how to keep it in tip top condition?
Would you recommend a filter for the lens?
Tools to keep dust off sensor?
Should I always leave the lens on?
Any other advise?
Thanks

Thank you everyone for taking the time to help.
I am really torn between Pentax k-70 and Canon 200D as the canon kit lenses are really good. (Can get Canon 200D with 18-55mm and full frame 50mm prime for £519)

However the k-70 is a better body for photos and will will need to invest a lot into lenses initially.
I am starting as a beginner but want to get into outdoor photography and perhaps later on if I am any good at it, start charging companies for taking photos for their websites etc. I know I should be looking at full frame and the idea of buying full frame lenses from the get go does make financial sense.

Looking at buying k-70 for landscape, architecture and commercial outside shoots. Which package should I go for?
K-70 with kit 18mm-135mm or
K-70 18-50 & 50-200mm
Both working out about £650 on jessops.
Is there any difference in lens quality? If not then my thoughts are I get more coverage with the two lens set up.
