This thread is great!

Gotta participate with couple of oldies...

Some lens, maybe 50mm on K-200d

While modern CMOS gear is far superior on paper, the CCD technology is much more satisfying to shoot, post process and to look at

This is one of my favorite pics taken with my K10D:
From the front yard - Apet-Sure's Album: Nature-K10D - PentaxForums.com

I have to say that I prefer the added pixels and ISO performance of my K-5IIs over the K10D, but my KP has better color accuracy overall I think than the K-5IIs. Is it equal to the K10D? Hmmm.......

Rust 1 & 2 K200, Tamron 35-80 about F14 ( I think). I am experimenting with close ups of textural details.

This is fun. I started digging up some oldies from my K200D days to share. That was my first DSLR. Before that I had a Canon point and shoot, and wanting to get more into photography had put CHDK on it to allow manual controls, so I knew a little going in. Still, I contribute much of my learning to the K200D. Certainly carried it with me most everywhere for all my teenage years and then some.

All on the K200D and kit 18-55 lens.
I guess I was on a panorama kick for a while.

I see I didn't know how to edit dust out of the photos back then

Brings back fond memories of summer.

Dramatic skies common in Missouri. I miss those.

Local Satan-worshippers have tagged these bad-order cars in long term storage on a disused industrial spur in rural North Carolina. K100D and Quantaray 28-90 Macro.

Working from home in sitting on the deck with my laptop yesterday and I'm watching this chipmunk take trips across my deck to the garden and back and forth all morning. He was waiting for the birds to get out of the birdbath so he could get a drink when I shot this with a K10d and Sigma 135-400nm.

I used to own that 19/3.8 PKA mount Vivitar that I used with my Super Program. I gave away to a family member...I thought it was a very decent ultra-wide...at least for film...wish I still had it.

I almost bought one recently for like 45 dollars. When they show up they are relatively cheap. The lens has nice colors but I decided I can get much better quality images at f4 from my DA*16-50 even if it's bigger...
