if you consider d610, you may also look at d750, tilting screen can be a plus when you are at crowded place.
Besides it is said that its overall af performance, including low light, is better than d610.

if you could have tried 250 shots for lightning in one-night, then it should be a very very stormy day :)
taking lightning in night is not so challenging, just
iso:100, focus manuel infinity, f/11, bulb mode.
press the shutter, until light after strike pass away then release it, and of course dont shake camera
as i remember.
18-55 is not so bad for it.

Keith,
16-45 is not enough range for portraits, it should be extended to 75 or 85.
If IQ is important, of course multiple primes give best results, but usage is a bit more difficult because of lens change pratic.
18-55 is not a bad lens and it is claimed that it is better than canon-nikon kits. but not fast enough for indoors.
for portrait may be tamron 28-75 will be a good alternative.
but 28mm isnt wide enough for landscape, therefore you can use kit for it or think 10-20 which is much more pricey depending on your expectation.
may be you can find pentax friends around your location and try their gears before you buy.
