Hi Everyone,
New to DSLR despite of having old russian mirror film camera Zenit about 20 years ago. Just got my K-5, Tamron 17-50, Sigma 70-200 and SMC Takumar 55 F1.8. Will be in touch. Cheers!

Welcome aboard! That's a great zoom lineup you've invested in, I'm sure you'll enjoy it

Welcome! If you still have your Zenit lenses you can put an M42-K adapter on the new K-5 and keep shooting with them! (Love my Helios-44 and Jupiter-9 on digital...)

Thanks, Zenit passed away many years ago

I'm using M42 adapter with Takumar.
