Hope it works out for you. Good luck! Just curious if you are satisfied with the selection of native lenses? Any plans of using adapters and non-native lenses?

I'm a prime shooter, so yes, I am going to have to get used to shooting at f2.8 for now. The lenses that will work for me at this time will be the 24-70 and I'm thinking of getting the sigma 35 1.4.

For now that's it. I don't do landscape so anything wider I really don't need at this point. As I go I will see what else I can my hands on in prime lenses. I do want a 85mm. There is also the 70-200 but that is the least lens I use so I really don't need it. The 24-70 will be my main lens if I get the K1, for now.

What about their older 1990s film era autofocus lenses? There's some other options if you look to that bunch of lenses and some of them are relatively cheap on the Bay...

24/2, 31/1.8, 35/2, 43/1.9, 50/1.4, 50/1.7, 77/1.8, 85/1.4...
