Self Introduction

Hi Everybody in the Pentax Forums !

I'm Jorge (L'Affreux Jojo) and I've been using Pentax material for a long while by now.

I'm just what we call in France "Un Amateur Averti" (and in any case a professional in photography), nowadays living in Ireland after been living in Argentina, Spain and France.

My Pentax kit is composed of :
- RICOH GR (16 Mpix)
- Pentax K-10D
- Pentax K-1000

Lenses :
- Cosina 24mm f/2.8
- Pentax SMC-A 35mm f/2.8
- Pentax SMC-A 50mm f/2.8
- Pentax 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 SMC DA
- Tamron 17-50mm f/2.8
- Pentax SMC-A 70-210mm f/4
- Pentax 50-200mm f/4-5.6

I'm very proud of been in this forum, I like the Pentax brand, and I respect people who work with other brands (I also have other brands cameras).

I like almost all style of photography, even if I do not focus on any style in particular. I like sharpness in images, contrasts (all kind of them), B&W (I developed some years ago my own b&w films at home), low ISO pics. Daylight or night photo have the same interest for me. Portraits, objects, Hands, anything that can be taken in photo is a good subject.

Nowadays I try to improve the quality of my compositions, to pay more attention to the light. Let's put it simple, I have more things to learn, than the much I already know.

I hope I will have the opportunity to have discussions with many of you, and if I can be helpful in some way; I will share the things I know whenever they will help.

Thanks to all of you who took the time of reading my message.

Voila !

Welcome to the forums, Jorge! Great to have you with us... and may I say, what a nice introduction

You have some fine equipment. You'll find a lot of folk here (me included) who really enjoy shooting with older cameras and lenses. My favourite DSLR is the K10D / Samsung GX-10 (I own two GX-10s myself), and there's a healthy community here of folks who actively shoot these cameras.

Looking forward to your involvement here

Mike,

Thanks for your message. I have to get involved much more in forums, cause this is the first time I participate in one.

I'll do my best to come frequently and participate as much as possible.

Cheers !
