Win a Pentax Limited Lens: Raffle Now Live!

Hi everyone,

I'm glad I stumbled across this forum! I'm not a (true) Pentax user although have recently bought the Samsung clone of the K10d on Ebay, happily in mint condition with twin lens kit. Back in 2007 this was the first DSLR I ever owned which was bought for me as a gift. After only a few weeks of ownership it met with a tragic accident (I slipped on a wet floor, camera flew in the air then double bounced off a sink unit and onto a stone floor)....My insurance company at the time couldn't source the same camera for me so replaced it with a Canon 450d - I've been Canon ever since, until now.....

Didn't really NEED another camera but I guess I was feeling nostalgic about my first ever SLR (Ebay is dangerous for that!!!)

Loving using it, will post some photos in the K10D club thread soon.
