Hi from south of France (so excuse my bad english

I am a (proud) new owner of a K5-II, but without lens

. I wait for the classic 18-55, which would arrive soon. I discover this forum when searching for review on pentax lens to get my way in the jungle of lens and complete with a prime lens and maybe a zoom !
I made film photography 20 years ago and now I want to come back with dslr since the budget for a decent used dslr is not so much.

thank you for you attention

Bonjour Alex. Welcome to the Pentax forums. Your English is much better than my French !!!

When you get a lens for your camera, please post some photographs. Good to have you here.

G'Day Alex, welcome to the forums.

I've been using the K5 for many years and know that it has plenty to offer so hopefully that lens isn't too far away and you'll be out and about with a great camera.

thank you for your welcome.
Latest news, the postman went this afternoon with the lens, but didn't find my doorbell :/
so need to wait Monday to get it in post office.

I hate it when that happens!

Oh well, you have something to look forward to on Monday
