Hello from Skillman, New Jersey

My home is a 15-minute drive from Princeton University. I started in photography with film in 1987 but switched to digital photography in 1999. I currently shoot with a Fujifilm X-T2 and Fujifilm XF16-55mmF2.8 R LM WR. I have rediscovered film with an Asahi Optical Co. Pentax Spotmatic II and a few SMC Takumar primes which I also use on my Fujifilm X-T2 with an adapter.

Welcome to the Pentax Forums!.
Personally I started shooting on a Pentax ME back in 1980-81.
Being from the "other side of the pond" I have mostly visited the airport Newark there, but I actually went to the Jersey Diamond shopping mall to check it out, or at least that I recall it was what it was called back then.

Welcome to the forum from South Africa. Takumar lenses still rock and I am glad you are putting them to good use. Do share some of your work.
Best.

Welcome to the Forums, from Australia. Takumar lenses have a big following among the users of other systems. They have that special "something".
