Only joined here yesterday and bought my first Pentax camera last Thursday. Although I have been taking photos for most of my life I am an amateur as it has mostly been just point and shoot photos and not thinking about the composition of the picture. 99% of the photos I have taken are landscapes and not ones of people. Having moved to Wales 9 months ago from England I have recently joined a photo group (as a way to meet people and also to learn more about photography). So, I have taken the plunge and bought myself a Pentax Z110D with a zoom lens. Now I just have to learn what everything does - watch this space, as they say.
