Best travel lens for the pentax k 3 mark iii monochrome?

For travel on the K-3 Mark III Monochrome, I'd start with one zoom that covers most of a day's pictures. The Pentax HD DA 16-85mm f/3.5-5.6 ED DC WR frames like 24-128mm on full frame and is weather sealed, which helps if the weather turns. If you'd rather have a shorter zoom, the Pentax smc DA 16-45mm f/4 ED AL frames like 24-68mm and covers wide streets and close portraits.

For evenings, food and dim interiors, I'd add one prime. The Pentax smc DA 35mm f/2.4 AL frames like 52mm, a natural view that's good for people and tables.

Since this body records only black and white, judge your framing and light by eye rather than by colour. The travel guide has the rest of the checklist, including what to pack alongside your lenses.
