Hello Everybody,

I'm no stranger to Pentax cameras. My first Pentax was an ME, which I bought in 1982 and it served me well until I sold it with all the lenses I'd acquired for it. Later, I had a Pentax Auto110 and despite its small size, I had some brilliant results from it for many years, in many ways, a remarkable little camera. Now, after the auto-focus on my Canon DSLR went haywire, I've splashed out and bought a Pentax K-5 and an 18-135mm zoom lens, also an AF-540FGZ flash gun. I do intend to add a 50mm f1.4 as a prime lens. I've had this camera for 2 weeks now and have experimented with various settings and programs when I've been out on walks around Derbyshire. It's one impressive piece of kit!
