personal introduction

Hi all. I'm almost 50, started shooting with a Mamiya, then Nikon, Canon plus a variety of second-hand equipment of all sorts.
I never used Pentax cameras until I went digital, it was first love (well, second love, as I started with a Samsung GX1L, a bit inadequate)!
Now I mostly use a Pentax K50 (name fixed, I wrote 50D!) but I'm also getting used to a Fuji XT-20, a totally different animal. Better sensor, better focus, whatever, but I prefer the Pentax for the way it works and for the controls, I feel more at ease with that.
PK forever!

The Pentax 50d? Yeah you got the Canon lingo, hehe. More used to hearing Dx vs Fx and VR from Nikon lingo. Welcome. Its just words. Enjoy your k50 and hope that reverse focus doesn't throw you.
