Hello all,
I was given the link to this site from someone at another site I post on.
First I'm glad I found out about this site. Here's my story:
I'm 46 and decided to return to college. After starting out with a different major I decided to go into Media Technology with a concentration in photography, after a friend said I have the photographic eye. I hope to use both eyes for this career!
I have a Canon A570 Point and Shoot and of coarse I need a DSLR. Well after much searching, touching and playing with many different cameras I decided on the Pentax K200D. Price is a huge factor though. Maybe I can find one here for a good price with a lens.
I saved up enough money to quit working for 24-36 months while I persue my education. I had a limit of $500 for the camera, now though I went to $600 and even that isn't enough. So I'm looking and watching for a good deal on this amazing camera. Sigh
I'm putting off purchasing it until after the ninth of next month due to other expenses. Class, book and lab fees.
I acutally feel asahmed to post because I don't have my camera yet
, but I wanted to say hi and hopefully get some good advice from other pentax owners.
I want to do nature and travel photgraphy and perhaps photojournalism.
Thanks,
Judi
