Hi!

My name is Christopher. I've just joined the forum, despite the fact that i visit it daily, for the last decade.
I don't really know why took me so long to become a member but i might now have a chance after 2020... (It's the end of the world as we know it and I feel fine

)
I live in Chalcis a small town in Greece.I am a Pentax user from my chilhood (I blame my father and his pentax mx)
I do still life photography for living and looking forward to share and receive knowledge with the rest of the pentax forums members.

Have a nice day.

Hi Christopher. Another welcome from Australia. Your father must be about my age - I started in Pentax with an MX too and I am still with Pentax.

PJ1 my father now is in his early 60's and to be honest he gave me first his Pentax ME (i guess auto mode was better suited for someone with no exposure knowledge) but in the ears of a seven year old kid, ΜΧ (em ex) sounded cooler than ME.

Well, I have hit 70 now. Don't know where the years went but I intend to be taking pics for a while yet. I haven't been to Greece (it is still on my list of things to do) and I think it will be a few years before we can travel again.
