Why not just stick with pentax? An FA 24/28-90mm or 28-70 f2.8 zoom would be sufficient - it covers the most popular focal lengths even for landscapes. I find that I hardly use any telephoto lens longer than 100mm. Couple it with a good polarizing filter and neutral grads it should make quite a handy gear. It is quite light and hassle free. Unfortunately don't where to get cheap films in NY.

Just wait around for the other pentax users lah, I'm sure they'll be able give better advice.
