Win a Pentax Limited Lens: Raffle Now Live!

I'm a long time Lurker and I've decided to finally make an account here. There is a lot of great information here to be found here.

I'm currently shooting with a K10D per the recommendation of a friend and Pentax'er. I've had the camera a little over a year now and have really enjoyed photography thus far! It's my first real experience with photography. I love shooting automotive, signage and obscure stuff.

I've already collected a few lenses.

I've got:

Pentax SMC 50mm f2/2.8
Pentax SMC 75-150mm f4
Sigma Wide Angle 18-35mm f3.5
Tamron 28-80mm 3.5f

I'm hoping to add an affordable telephoto zoom to my arsenal for xmas! Looking at a Sigma 70-300mm f4. Hoping to get some good shots in on track days if I can make it to them!

Welcome aboard! We've got a number of train buffs around the place.

Train buffs? I've got a main rail way rolling through my town thought about trying to get some decent shots of it at some point! Not sure if it's my thing yet.

Welcome! I also shoot with the K10D! You have a nice lineup of lenses, and a longer one would certainly be great!
