Thank you very much for your encouraging posts.
@aslyfox GAS and LBA is a good warning.
I might be a bit susceptible to it.

I like this forum very much and read here for a long time again and again. Now i registered and want to introduce me.
After a trip to scottland with an analog praktica I thought about a change to a dslr and purchased a K-m in 2009. Especially beause it runs with aa-cells and on the other hand because of the water resistance. It has come with a smc da-l 1:3.5-5.6 18-55mm and a smc da 1:4.5-5.6 50-200mm.
But one year later a friend of mine showed me his 2010 k-r with iso 25600 -- i was a bit jealous... perhaps even a bit more.
I had taken photos with analog cameras nearly for twenty years and used 3200-iso-film not very often, but with the new possibilities i wanted more.
Then the smartphones with their really good cameras came up. My enthusiasm sank to a minimum. I tried the comeback with the purchase of a Asahi Pentax-M 50mm f/1.4. It works, but not good enough.
Then I started to search for a better camera but didn't want to loose my lenses - and I am - don't know really why - a pentaxian. (Perhaps also because the praktica had pentacon lenses - but that's another story)
Than came day X this year and i found a k-70 body with a 50% reduction. With this body in hand I bought a tamron 70-300mm and a SMC Pentax-FA 50mm F1.4 on occasion (the tamron was kind of a costless extra).
I know, that the lenses i use are kind of cheap in many ways - perhaps except for the smc fa 50mm (that i like very much) - but I am very enthusiastic.
The next lense shall be the new pentax 35mm... let's see - would be the most expensive i would purchase.
With growing talents grows the lense-set (may I say so?)
Just trying.
