Hi! I am Tulegen. I have used Pentax K-5 for 6 or so years. Finally switched to K-1 ii this year. Hopefully K-1 iii won't show up anytime soon

I like to shoot landscapes/nightscapes/cityscapes and people. Apparently most of my primes (Samyang 14/2.8, Pentax 35/2.8 macro ltd and DA50/1.8) from K-5 work well with FF K-1, which is a very nice surprise

Check Lens Compatibility with your Pentax Camera
