Originally posted by noelcmn Uhm, been watching the development of this challenge for a long time, and despite some apprehensions about equipment (everybody around here seems to have either a K5 or K3), and here I come with an ancient K200D. And then there is the time factor, but I am encouraged by the fact that some people don't always post for every day (an excuse No 1) and others drop out (excuse No 2). But such a friendly bunch here, I think I'll give it a go. May as well tackle something new for the new year. Undecided as to which lens, but probably FA 70-300, a lens little used. Or maybe the Sigma Aspheirical 28-80 Macro. OK, now that I've avoided OzzRod's Power Arm Twisting Threat

How wonderful noelcmn! Welcome to Singles In!
If it helps I shot half of my shots this month with my k100d, so really your camera is a spring chicken compared to mine.
Don't feel intimidated joining. Come on in, the water's fine.
I look forward to seeing more of your part of the world in January.
Meanwhile, I'm starting to get a little cold feet on my part. I'm pretty sure I'm still going for a 50mm, am now thinking it will be a 1.8. Either my Meyer, Pentacon (which has barely had any love at all) or my tak 55 1.8.
Having said that, I've got a bad feeling I am starting to burn out a little and will need a breather after January. Let's hope it's just 200mm fatigue rather than Singles In burn out and I make it through all of Jan.
