For those about Pentax i salute you!

My name is Antoine, I'm from the island of Crete but i live in Athens, Greece. I'm a theatre technician and i used to be amateur photographer with a K-1000. Recently i decided to go digital and now I'm a proud owner of a K-1. In order to decide a Pentax dslr i started reading reviews and opinions in here. I found the Pentaxforums.com extremely user friendly and help full so it didn't took long to see on wich dslr to go with. therefore i would like to thank you all users and administrators, you have all built a great forum for us all, keep it up Pentaxians.

Thank you all guys for the hearty greedings!!! ☺ Its really nice to be here with you!!!

---------- Post added 11-11-17 at 05:17 PM ----------

Because it's the first time I'm joining a forum, im still trying to find out how it works, so please forgive me If i don't do things correctly. I would like to ask you how can i start a thread (thread is a subject for conversation right?), i have also another question, how can donate to the forum? Im not into PayPal thing, or any other kind of e-payment (I'm a cave man, i know &#128539, but i know how to send money from my bank account to another bank account old school, or with western union and moneygram.
The other thing i'd like to say is that i found in a local photo store two great Lenses in a really cool price!!!
The first is a Pentax 45-85mm FA medium format, the other is the Pentax FA 80-160mm also medium format. This guy can give em to me for the price of 300 EU approx 450 USD (more or less). I had this idea to put them on my K-1, it is possible cause i found adapter to do it, but the adapter i found does not support AF... I was wondering If any of you guy know If there ever was an adapter with AF and If its possible to find one. If not, do you think is it worth it buying them and use them manually? Thank you again guys!!!

Payment options are best asked to Adam.

You can ask questions about the medium format lenses in the Medium Format forum here. Those guys will be happy to point you the right direction.
