My take would be if that's the system you want look at capabilities, not
actual lenses. You could save a bit by getting a used DA 16-50mm a very
good lens, assuming you're going to want the extra reach of 60-250 which
will cover the middle to long telephoto range and look for a good used A
100

Not really -- I've learned from painful experience that getting rid of
photo equipment is a big hassle (
Aahz, the primary oversight in your calculation is the apparent assumption that
your gear will go to $00.00 in value after some number of years.
A second possible mistake in your calculation is the notion that your gear has
value only during the hours it is being used. You can't get image files
Not an entirely accurate assumption - unless (1)you never buy any other
Pentax cameras, (2)you throw away all your Pentax equipment at the end
of five years, (3)*ALL* the photography you're doing with your current
equipment continues as is and you *NEVER* use the Pentax equipment for
photograph
