Hi - I'm a little embarrassed to admit that I've had a K100D and a pair of kit lenses for a few years, but never really dove into the hobby to see what they can do (beyond the basics of point-zoom-click). Looking forward to the learning curve!

btw, I have some old Minolta gear from the 80s - an X-570 and a few lenses - are those at all relevant or usable in a K100D world?
