Hey there, I have just bought the K3-ii after years of harassment from Dad (I was previously a Nikon girl). Some of you will know my Dad as malleeboy on the forum.
I spend my year living and working in ski resorts between Australia and Colorado, USA, and I am focusing on ski and snowboard photography, along with travel and landscape. I am looking forward to this new challenge, and sharing photos with you all. Cheers!

Hi alpinegirl. Welcome to the Pentax forums. You will really appreciate the weather sealing on the K-3II. Teamed with a WR lens and all will be good.

Looking forward to seeing your snow photographs.

Welcome aboard, so what took you so long... you know we Dads are right about such things.

Welcome to the forums. You'll love the K-3II, it's a great camera.

Welcome from Chicago!

Curious to know how many 2nd or 3rd generation Pentaxians are on the forum, I can think of Ole & Adam...anyone else?
Heres a little snap (film, scanned) of the alpinegirl (who was born in flat, low rainfall country with no mountains in sight), but this probably gives a little insight as to what was to come

Welcome to the forums. I have a K-3II also. It produces images with nice detail/color and the AF is excellent among many other nice features.

Welcome ! I was once a nikon guy, got a K-3, image quality is superb. Enjoy the K-3ii !
