Hi.
Interesting topic, and one you always return to.
In general I would think that it is the person with the tool that makes the job. But a good tool may make the job easier, At the same time, an adequate tool is a good thing.
But even these considerations are not objective,I think.
I have tried some of my old prime Pentax lenses that dates back 40 years. They are really nice to work with, and it is really back to basics when it comes to focus and light metering. But for me it is a very different experience than the superfast new lenses that makes it possible to shoot much quicker and I can rely on the camera doing the job almost without looking into the viewfinder. So it is a whole lot of different situation. In my view. This said, I think the old lenses give me or require more time and maybe more peace in the situation, which is a good thing.
Well, just some thoughts

I have done all the updates from the time I bought the camera.( Oct 2010) Have had no problems at all and i think the camera has functioned a little bit better every time. I notice that the AF on the 16-50 has improved. But it can still become better.

Nice to finally join you. I have been reading these pages for a couple of years, and learned a lot. I enjoy shooting, and walks my K-5 almost everywhere I go. Nowadays I enjoy using old M 42 lenses, but also use my 12-24 when I have to focus more quickly.
