da 16-50 f2.8 for street stuff its just the perfect range and its weather resistant this stays on 90% of the time then choose a lens that fits your style go fisheye wide 10mm-24mm or go long 50mm-200mm i personaly love wide with all the distortions ;]

i still use both systems but i still love the pentax system if your using it in rough weather the cannon 7d stays packed away and the k5 pentax gets drenched and if it gets dirty i can run it to the sink and rinse it off something i would not do even with L glass with the cannon.

the k5 is a great system but 7d still has better video so i have to have both and its kind of nice to have the choice of system but im torn the pentax wins out for me in the end its just built very well the seals on the canon look like sponge to me and i just cant trust them in the rain esp. the cf slot

love the pextex colors and how fast it can change setting if the light changes (via the green botton) and lens are my faves i have a cannon 7d and it still seems boring for me and feels ackward at times and even if it performs better in higher iso's the pics too me seem to have no soul almost plastic;[ but the cannon movie mode is the best pentax need to work on that the need 1080 @ 24p not that 1290 crap;[ and my pentax k7 just took a dump on me thank god its still under wr protection i miss that thing ;[

one of the biggest problems(in sd Ca. us)is that pextax have no reps (for support)nor any promotions for sellers and shops too sell pentax so most shops have dropped them as a line.
Its not a good sign;[

try using the pc sync to the transmiter and also check if you have your on camera flash set to normal if its on wireless you will get a delay because of the pre flash
