collin2879 · 12-05-2021, 11:44 PM - **1 Like**

Hi
My name is collin
have been a member for a while but have not introduced myself
I was very passionate about photography since the 80s and i had fun processing my own B+W films
I wasnt a great photographer but it was fun
When everything went to digital i found it hard as to get any sort of quality you had to pay big money and i didnt have the money
Even when i used film i had Pentax cameras and when i eventualy had enough for a secondhand digital i chose pentax as the lenses would fit
I dont post much on any forums even facebook but i read the information that others put up and this is why i like this forum
If you have read this thank you as i know it is a bit longwinded
also im from australia so if some of the words are strange thats the reason

Cheers

Welcome Colin!
I started photography as hobby nearly 40 years ago, consider myself as just "Ok" and still have a lot to learn!
