K1 ii is a good or even great camera for such needs but it is big and heavy. However, there are very nice prime lenses for it that are really compact, so the whole kit doesn't necessarily have to be very big. I wouldn't go with the kit lens though- you'd probably be better off buying 2 prime lenses for wide angle and standard focal length and a 70-200 f 2.8 or f 4 zoom

I agree.. with K1, there is almost infinite options in terms of high quality optics lenses on ebay

Might have to settle for 2 cameras  - one for travel like compact apsc one
