Welcome from Paris... Texas, that is...

Good to see such an active Pentax Forum. I've been using Pentax since an I bought a old A3000 kit at a pawnshop many years ago, and have had lenses from 20mm up to the nice A* 200/4 EDIF Macro and the great FA 600/4 EDIF with both 1.4 XL and 2.0 XL TCs. I still have the TC's as mementos, but they don't fit any of my current lenses since I sold the 600/4 a couple of years ago. I should probably sell them to someone who has a lens that fits.

Check my Picasaweb site to see nice scans of a Spotmatic manual and some photos of my dog taken with the manual focus Tokina AT-X 300/2.8 SD on a monopod.

Welcome! Those TC's would probably sell really quickly on our Marketplace, as they're in relatively high demand

Welcome!

Hey, Tex. I know where you are:

I did some economic development ads for Paris in the 90s.

Way Eastern Texas, and loaded with Pine Trees.

Welcome, does the other Paris have an Eiffel tower?

The ads that I did for them had an Eiffel Tower wearing a cowboy hat.

Nothing real creative there, but it is what it was.

We have a stubby little eiffel tower next to our nice little convention center, public park, trail, basketball and softball fields. There's a big annual archery meet held on the grounds with great wooded shooting lanes. The center sees a gun show twice a year but so far no camera shows.
