I have found the 28-105 an excellent walk round lens for the K-1. It's light and really does provide a good range while still getting high quality shots.
Now....I love my primes (any of my three amigos on the K-1 are superb and would certainly be my first picks), but in unpredictable weather (rain, snow, mist etc) or when there's lots of dust or pollen around and changing lenses might be unwise, the 28-105 has done the job.
I have carried it through Kakadu and Litchfield National Parks, as well as locally, and compared to having say, the 50-135 mounted which weighs almost as much as the 24-70, it is a breeze.
Not sure why so many people here seem to dismiss it - it is a viable option.
There are some good compacts around, but once you're used to a DSLR, they don't quite cut it IMHO.
