My MX and pancake lens fit nicely in a waist pack/ bum bag. Though I have to say, if I'm really travelling light (without a bag) then the olympus mu (stylus) goes in my jacket pocket.

Lengthwise it's only about 3/8" bigger. It a bit fatter as the 24-90 has a 67mm filter size as opposed to the 58 of the 28-105. I think it probably looks bigger because I tend to keep the tulip hood inverted on the lens. The 28-105/3.2-4.5 is a perfect match for the ZX-5n (IMHO!)

> > How do you carry a Pentax on a non-shooting project basis? I have each camera in a little neoprene sleeve from Zing, and each lens has its own Zing pouch. That way I can put them in whatever bag I want and they're protected. For shooting, I have an ordinary backpack that I stuff all my gear in. When I get to a shoot, I can loop each lens pouch over my belt for easy access.
Re: Women of the PDML Re: OT Pentax wife
I have a tote bag that I can sling over my shoulder and I carry my camera and maybe an extra lens in there along with my wallet (or small purse), keys, etc. No problems so far. It is inconspicuous insofar as no one would guess there is a camera and lens in the bag. kathy - Original Message - From: "Pat" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "PDML" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Tuesday, February 04, 2003 11:42 PM Subject: Re: Women of the PDML Re: OT Pentax wife > Kathy L wrote: > > > And this sister uses a PZ-1p and all the gear I can carry in my vest with > > all the pockets. > > leickly story (kathy) > > This prompts me to ask the other sisters: > How do you carry a Pentax on a non-shooting project basis?

Re: Women of the PDML Re: OT Pentax wife
Actually, Fairy-Girl hung around (actively) for about 9 months until her husband lost his job and they had to move to another part of Australia. Breaking her first camera was fairly early in her stay on PDML - several of us facilitated replacements and she kept on. She had a thriving kids' photography business going after a while. She has since had another child of her own and hasn't gotten back to photography yet last i heard. And don't forget Daphne - she is still around.

OK, so now we're at least seven -- Annsan, Amita, Wendy, me, Jeepgirl, Pat in SF and Kathy with the name neither Dan nor I can spell. And we have not yet heard from either of the two gentlemen I expected to know fer sure. To get even more firmly on topic, what Pentaxes are the sisterhood shooting with? ERN (PZ-1; ZX-5n; LX; MX; WR-90. Prefer cameras to be as compact as reasonably possible)
