Hello to all,

New to dslr since january this year, i believe I'm a lucky guy how made a smart choice with pentax, got my self a K30 and 18-135WR for outdoor leisure shooting (beach, mountain, ...), and came to love the older lenses. I'm very much enjoying the A50 f2.8 macro (truly amazing results), and also found some cheap manual oldies.

I thank you all for the quality of the information given here about pentax equipment.

Enjoy !

Benoit from france.

Welcome to the forum, there's lots of great older glass out there, problem comes getting the camera bag off the floor when they're all aboard.

Welcome! Yes, I am a fan of the older lenses myself. Being poor helps that a lot.
