I'm usually too lazy to review anything :lol: But sure, I'll write a review with some photos after I have used this lens a bit more.

Buying the K-1 caused a slight LBA. Fortunately nothing too expensive. Found a new Sigma EX 20mm F1.8 DG RF for 249€. Much nicer lens than reviews have you believe, and for that price a real bargain. Work very nicely with K-1.
Other lens I got from a neighbor. She was taking boxes of all kinds of stuff to fleamarket. There was an old crappy film camera (Z-10) with Pentax F 50mm F1.7. She told me that autofocus is broken, but only wanted 10€ for it so I took it. I thought the lens would be worth the money as manual focus lens. I threw away that nasty looking camera and mounted the lens on K-1, and autofocus works flawlessly. Only the body was faulty. Lens is really clean looking inside and out. Must be the best camera related purchase I've ever made.
Now I have nice set of FF primes: EX 20mm/1.8, DA 35mm/2.4, F 50mm/1.7, D-FA 100mm/2.8 and DA* 300 :)

I still have my K-01 for those occasions where K-1 seems excessive :) I will never sell that camera, I like it so much.
Those DA Limiteds are of course great little lenses (especially on K-01), but they didn't see much use, so I figured it would be better to let someone else enjoy them.

Traded K-3 Prestige, K-r, DA15, DA21, MZ-5 and bunch of other junk for mint condition K-1. Still feeling bad for letting that gorgeous K-3 go, but playing around with K-1 eases the pain :).

Mailman just delivered two 64GB Transcend Premium 300x SD cards. They were only 15€/pc. delivered, so I couldn't resist.

Once again, I bought something because it was cheap. New Hoya HMC NDX8 72mm filter for 5,10€. Some kind of stock clearance price.
I've never used other than protection filters before. It fits my Sigma 18-35/1.8, so I bought it out of curiosity.

Just received my "new" K-3 Prestige Edition. It was sold as used, but I really can't find any signs of use, no matter how hard I look. All things were in their original plastic bags and boxes. Leather strap bag wasn't even opened. Only 240 photos taken. Paid 649€ for it, which I think was really great price.
It's little too fancy camera for me, but at this price, why not :) Just can't help thinking what's wrong with it, since it was so cheap. New ones go for ~1300€ here.

Got this like-new used Sigma 8-16mm lens for 320€ at a camera store, which I think was really good price. Now I need to find some cats and dogs for for nice 8mm close-ups. When I got DA15, I thought 'wow this is wide', but this lens at 8mm is insane. Makes me wonder how it is physically even possible to take this wide photos. I really don't know what I need this lens for, but at this price, it is just "nice to have".
Makes K-01 look like a small camera.
