Hello from Switzerland

lyskamm · 08-11-2010, 07:32 AM

Hi Everybody,

Glad to be part of the club.

I am the happy owner of a K200D, with 18-55, 50FA1.4, 60-250F4 and a Sigma 18-200 (for my daughter, when she borrows the K200D). Previously I was shooting with an analog Mamiya 645 and these are my first steps into the digital world.

I love my camera and the lenses. Only problem the SDM of the 60-250 failed after 6 months and haven't sent it back for repair yet. I am hoping it comes back to life by miracle.

We'll see. I am a bit upset at Pentax, I must say, seen the price of their glass.

Below, a shot taken with the 60-250, and a detailed crop.

Ciao,

Marco, Geneva, Switzerland

Welcome to the forum, hope all turns out with the lens issue, thought that your location might have been Venice with the mask picture.

Bingo, it is Venice indeed.
