New and not-so-new

I was originally registered a few years ago as stilabel2 when I owned a Pentax k50. I sold that camera and bought into another system and now am back home with Pentax. I started in photography with a Pentax Spot Matic in 1960 moving up from a Ricoh 7s while stationed in Okinawa in 1959. I am now shooting a Pentax K-S1 which I absolutely love. I only have the one lens which is the Tamron 18-200 but it is amazing on this camera. Glad to be back in the fold.
Mike

Thanks for the welcome it is good to be back using a Pentax camera again. Three of my kids took photography class in highschool with my old spotmatic and assorted lenses from the sixties. The Marines has special service photo labs on almost every base I was stationed at. Made shooting B&W cost effective.
Sure nice to be home.
Mike
