Take the 3 lenses (15, 20-40 and the 70mm, not 100mm), leave the TC at home.

Against the laws of nature, which laws would those be? That mirrorless cameras and DSLRs need a different mount?
If you mean that, then you are wrong. In fact, Pentax already did that (google K-01).

I have Nikon which I am not super optimistic about either.  But i do not feel compelled to defend my camera system.  Go ahead and trash Nikon.  I am secure enough to admit that Nikon is no ...

Well that is especially bad news for Pentax because Sigma, Tamron, Zeiss and Tokina do not currently sell lenses in K-mount.

How much money does the Irix and Rokinon make Ricoh?

I don't think anyone would say that Pentax doesn't make fantastic, high quality products. The problem is that they release these products waaaay too infrequently.  Sorry, but the one camera they ...

a) I don't see full frame as a holy grail. But it certainly helps to have some sort of standard to know what angle of view we can expect. For example, on my RX100, it has 8.8-25.7mm. Who in the...

I agree. Tilting screens allow for creative angles AND precise framing...not one or the other.

The Ricoh GR has a dedicated following. This looks VERY similar to a GR so it may actually be a decent seller.

Me, personally, feels that a camera like this is screaming for a tilting screen. ...

I think it is a keeper because it shows a very special moment  in time. But from an artistic and technical standpoint it needs work.  To me, the tilting, the white balance of the couple, and the ...

I agree, it is a personal wish and i do not see it being a big enough seller to merit consideration by Sony.
But, I just went to Maui with my wife and i was dead set on taking my D810 + normal...

I may be the only one ...but I would love a 70-300mm rx100 to pair with my mark V. Yes, I know it is 2 cameras, but it is still much smaller than any dslr with a 24-70 + 70-300.

The Nikon 58mm f1.4 is about $400 more expensive and its performance is not universally loved (to put it nicely). The Zeiss Milvus, which people seem to really like, is the same price as the...

Is the 300mm f4 AFS-D a non-CPU lens?

Not sure if this is a lens or body issue.  Unfortunately I don't have another D type lens to isolate it to lens or body. So on my D810, with my 300mm f4 AF-S, I cannot control the aperture with the ...

If I were DPR, I would take down the K1II test, not redo it and not review any other Pentax reviews going forward. What is the incentive? To get lambasted on their own FREE forum.  Certainly not ...

As fun as playing with legacy glass can be, I HIGHLY recommend getting at least one of the modern lenses, such as the 15-30, 70-200 or 150-450.  That will make your K-1 smile :P I am not a huge fan ...

For me it is the Zeiss 28mm f2.  I am not a huge believer in "3d rendering" or "pop"...but if they do exist that lens is overflowing with it.

Well...this has been a revelation...thanks!

I didn't think the older tc-14ii worked with the 300mm pf or any other G lenses? I would love to be wrong about that since i have a perfectly serviceable tc-14ii.
