That's a beauty of a shot.

I still use the K1000 that I got for Christmas in 1980 when I was 16. It's aged a lot better than I have.

I was driving along minding my own business today when I saw this and just had to stop. Taken with the Takumar 35mm/3.5

(Xposted in the Takumar Club)

The K10d produces some remarkable images.

Took the K10D out today with my Tamron AF 70-300 LD Di in Macro mode. A good combination.

K10D, my first and only camera! I think it took me a few years to appreciate it, maybe because as my other friends became interested in photography they bought newer and more technologically "fresh" Canons and Nikons and they'd never even heard of mine. Also because I didn't fully understand how to use it (still don't but know a lot more) and insisted on using it beyond its limits and so naturally I was disappointed with the results. Now, I love it. I think looking at the photos in this thread have contributed to that! In particular I think it really works great in natural lighting. Maybe I'll buy a K-3 or whatever they come out with after awhile but I think it's more likely that I'll save my money for lenses.

Now, the pictures.

first two images taken this morning, the last was taken on Tuesday morning. Hope I'll have a chance to go somewhere other than my house/backyard soon~

Great shots - particularly love the second - the light captured there is just beautiful !

Congratulation and good luck in your discoveries - I believe that your K10D may still hold some surprises for you

Ex k100d myself, you won't regret it.

I am new here and have been looking for a similar thread/club for the K100D. Not seeing it. Is it just too old and that no one is using it any more? If someone could direct me, that'd be great.

I just posted to it yesterday. I'm also a member of the K10D Club, but still shoot with the K100D & *istD. Those 6mp bodies possess their own form of "magic" too.

Yes, that's what I was looking for, thank you!

Who needs a Fujifilm X100T when you've got the K10D....
