Hello from sunny Devon :)

cliffsmith23 · 02-28-2020, 09:32 AM

I'm sure I used to be a member here a while ago, but it must have been on some long-forgotten email address. Anyway, hello. Some forum users might recognise my name; I used to be the digital photography editor of TrustedReviews up until about five years ago, and before that I was deputy editor of What Digital camera magazine and occasional contributor to Amateur Photographer. I've also worked on a number of other camera magazines and websites over the years.

I've been a keen Pentax fan since 1980, in fact I still have my old ME Super, and of course, it still works perfectly. These days I use a K-3 for all my pro work, although I'm considering updatng to a KP.

Cheers,
Cliff Smith

Welcome back (maybe) from sunny Hampshire.

Looking forward to seeing your informed comments when folk here ask about protection filters, Pentax AF, mirrorless, FF v APSC, etc, etc;-)

Welcome to the forum from the Highlands of Scotland... which aren’t so sunny.

Welcome back to the forum!.
You have sun? I remember it and even took a photo of it once down your way.

I think I bumped in to you at Womad in 2007 (or WoMUD) as it became known...you spoke to me because I was using a K100D!
Hope Devon isn't too soggy......

Hi Cliff, welcome from Australia.

Welcome (back?) from the (usually) sunny Adelaide Hills.

And as coincidence would have it @StephenHampshire, our little city is hosting WOMADelaide next weekend. I have a ticket for all four days
