Collin, I can't follow all your thoughts on gear acquisition. All I can
say is that the K-70 with its 24 MB sensor is still a very capable DSLR
for its money.
I recently purchased one to use it with the 55-300 PLM and I'm very
pleased with the results.
I have never been a fan to work with adapters.

Ok, I’m not totally switching. Not even partly.
Just wanting to see how well the Pentax-F 50/1.7 works on the a5100.
It works pretty well.
The only problem is focusing in bright light. What a pain with no viewfinder at
all. I think on of those shoe-mount gizmos form the 50s might be in order.
Anyway, I shot an image with the K5 & a5100, both with the same lens.
Obvious improvements come with both resolution and sensor generational
improvements. (Would be fascinating to see that with a current sensor.)
I was debating getting a Zeiss for the Sony and maybe a matching one for a K-70.
(K-5 is for sale.) Maybe. But I’m wondering about one Zeiss (ZK) and that pricey
adapter. Or a 31 & the adapter. Either way all good results.
I was also surprised to see how long the K-70 has been on the market. Five
years is several lifetimes in the tech world. Amazing.
\*\*\* side note. Pentax rear lens caps work for Sony rear lens caps.
