When I was a teenager I played with an old rangefinder and also a bellows camera that my Dad had stored away, and even had a part time darkroom in one of the baths. Somehow in those days I came in possession of a Pentax brochure and I had dreams of buying a real nice SLR camera like the ones in my booklet.
Now I am few years and a few basic point and shoot cameras later in life, and finally followed through on buying a nice SLR for myself. I seriously considered some other brands but after reading reviews and price shopping, I decided on a Pentax K-x with two lens kit. UPS brought it today.
