New member saying hello to all

Hello everyone, my name is davey and I'm new to Pentax forums. I've shot with canon, Nikon, Fuji and Sony but have now got myself a Pentax k-5 and enjoying it. I have to say that Pentax cameras are very much underrated and to be honest I was offered this camera along with 18-55 and 50-200 both weather resistant along with battery grip for £300. It was only then I reviewed these cameras and it's as if Pentax cameras are a secret nobody knows about. Anyway thanks for having me and looking forward to speaking to you all. Kindest regards.......davey

Welcome to Pentax Forums. I had a K-5 also, and it can really produce excellent images.

Happy shooting!

Thanks for your warm welcome c_jones, the K5 is still an excellent camera and can still compete with recently produced apsc cameras

Many thanks John's, ergonomics take a bit of getting used to but I'm getting there. Really appreciate the warm welcome.
