Hi everyone,

I just figured I'd be the first to join in 2011.
Currently using a K10D but been shooting with Pentax since 1968 (or so).

Salutations. I live on Long Island, work in Manhattan.

Brand new to DSLRs (K-R). Old experience with film, and more recent practice with assorted digital point and shoots.

Hi folks - greetings from Western NY, from the land in-between Buffalo and Rochester!

Glad to see at least a couple of us are in WNY

Hi gang,
Kevin from Farmington, CT here. I started shooting Pentax with my dad in the early 80s. Took a break from photography for a while but then picked it up again when my kids got into sports. I now shoot competitive cheerleading (talk about the challenges of shooting fast action in low light!) and B&W portraits with my K-5. Favorite lens is a Tamron 70-200 2.8 DI LD. Looking for a budget-friendly prime lens in the 85-105mm range for portraits. Any suggestions?

Welcome to the group. There's a large assortment of lenses that fit your needs (especially if you start including legacy glass). I would suggest something in the 85mm f1.8(ish) range of which there are a lot of recent releases in third party equipment. Try Pentax Lenses by Sigma, Tamron, Zeiss, and more - Reviews and Specification Database - Pentax Lens Review Database and look for Vivitar, Samyang, etc.
