Demographics of Pentaxian's....

So how old are you? To have an indication off the age off active Pentax members overhere.

Only participate please when you own and use a Pentax DSLR.

Still just scraping in to the 30-39 bracket!

I am 41.
But in my Pentaxian life I am only about 4 years old.

Steve.Ledger · 07-14-2014, 03:32 AM

You want the age of my body or my mind??

I know I'm Always in my early twenties, but I'm 48 so that is the age I filled in. It's just to what the demographics are for the members in this forum. I hope a lot off entry's.

Groucho Marx once said something about a man's age, but he was probably living in hope.

I think the 20-29 category will be much less because if you were like me (especially now) you were broke during that time frame. Much less ability to drop cash on cameras and lenses and all that.

Steve.Ledger · 07-14-2014, 04:05 AM

And now we're broke because of it

LOL! I thought you were making fun of me when you said in the other thread that you would start a poll.

Excellent! I think this will give some interesting data.

I just celebrated the 21st anniversary of my 21st birthday this weekend.

Stone G. · 07-14-2014, 05:37 AM

Got my first Pentax (a K1000 and being my third camera) at the age of 32. So, as a Pentaxian I'm 'only' 33 years old, whatever my birth certificate says.

(Still, I used the bith certificate as basis for my vote).

I recently completed my 58th trip around the sun.

If we're looking at demographics, I'd also be curious about the percentage of men versus women.

anemone · 07-14-2014, 06:08 AM

Being 33 and I have used over 25 years Pentax SLRs.
I was 4 or 5 when I took my first pictures with Pentax ME Super. I still use those same film bodies and lenses. Only difference is that I use also digital bodies.

Just barely under the wire. Don't run the poll again next year.

The only brands I can think of that I have used without any interruption longer than Pentax are Coke and Kodak - 44 years of Pentax, 37 of them with the same camera.
