Hello everyone name is David I live in Washington state just bought the Pentax KP after using the k1000 for many many years love that camera but it is time to up grade now. I have a lot of learning to do. So if there is anyone here in Washington that wants to teach an old dog some new trick I am defiantly willing to learn. Take care everyone and be safe and Thank You

David

There is a pretty good youtube tutorial on the Pentax K-s2 (predecessor to the K70), but the menu system is pretty much the same. The KP has an all metal body, its rear screen does not fully articulate, and it uses the image processor chip from the K1, but also has the acceleration chip from the K1mkII. It's an hour and goes through pretty much everything.
