Welcome tanalised, from a fellow Kiwi. I hope you enjoy the forum as much as I do. It is very informative and there is always something new coming along.There are a few more Kiwis lurking about too. I am sure you will meet them in due course.

You live in a very attractive part of the country. I thought Christchurch was attractive too, but sadly that has changed since 22 February 2011. No doubt as time passes, the rebuild will replace the overgrown sections and roads will be brought back into better shape. Enough of that.

I look forward to seeing some of your photos.

Best wishes, Wawa.

Welcome to the forum tantalised, I hope you really enjoy your time here. I know you will enjoy your K5, as it is a fantastic camera. I really enjoy mine in any case.

There is a kiwi thread here on the forum where most of us who are here regularly comment, interact etc. This is at https://www.pentaxforums.com/forums/gatherings-photo-trips-groups/41021-kiwi-pentaxians-266.html - you would be welcome to introduce yourself there too. Pentax users from all over NZ are there.

Cheers

Ross

Welcome to the forum, interesting choice of name, are you suggesting your well preserved or is it what you do?

Haha. Tanalised is my old rugby union nickname. Given in the mid 80's when Colin Meads used to be advertising tanalised fence posts. Long story!
