I would like to add a 77/1.8 Ltd and possibly a 24. I don't shoot much wide stuff, but
I think I'd like to have something wider than a 35 for just in case, and 24 fills that
niche pretty

Recently added a K2 to my setup . . . I think I like that better for the
macro shots so far. Might have to add the K2 to my no-fat setup.

C'mon. You people with 4+ lenses have to be kidding saying that's a no fat
kit. Especially when they are 67 lenses... Here would be my no fat
whatsoever kit:
ZX-M (without grip)
A 50mm F1.4 (or A 50mm F2 for about the lightest Pentax SLR combo possible)
If I wanted a basic WA/Normal/Tele comb
Hi,
1. MX + normal (50/f1.4 or 43 Ltd)
2. MZ-S + wide (FA* 24/2.0 or FA 20-35/4.0) + portrait (FA 77 Ltd)
3. 645n + normal + wide
4. polarizers
99% of my needs.

I think the problem with the question as posed, is that it is so open ended
and non-specific. My "low fat" group is what I'll take on vacation with me,
however when I do go sightseeing or generally taking photos, much of that
will be staying in the hotel room/place that I'm staying.

My lightweight Pentax kit is -

28-200mm FA zoom
50mm FA macro
17-28mm Vivitar zoom
mini tripod

I take this when I know I will be carrying it around for awhile, such

I looked at the Bronica 645 RF.
Personally, I really think it's poorly built
compared to the Fuji units. Though interchangable
lenses is nice. Price just seems a bit high for
the build quality.
