good news,
Ricoh keeps on pushing. Busy Times for Pentax/Ricoh R&D. It is a long way to catch up to Canikon so little patience might be appropriate :-)

Ja good hint :-)
I have the DA35 which is already quite sharp.
Sooner or later I will be going for a portrait/macro 2.8 lens, either Tamron or Pentax.

thanks ;-)
I am not quite sure when I visited PF first time but it could be around 2007 sure as I was researching tips 'n' tricks for the *ist.
The reason why I started to take photography to next was that a co-worker sold me a SMC-FA 28-200 at a bargain price and on a Paris trip I was disappointed by the softness of that lens. I thought that it might just not pair nicely with the *istDL and I went for the K-7. The FA lens was still blurry and with min. focal length of 28 also not short enough so I let it go in favor of the 18-135 and the sigma.
I was always happy with the K-7 though the hi-ISO area is fairly useless with that body. Last week someone in my hometown offered a mint K-5 (<3k klicks) for a good price and I couldn't resist. I'll sell the K-7 and then this will be a very cheap upgrade.
Best regards,
Thomas

Hi all,
I am Thomas and currently 37 yrs old. I haven been browsing PF since years now, starting DSLR Photography around 2006 with a istDL.
As I like old cars and scooters, Photography was not such a big deal in my leisure time until last year. In May '13 I spontaneously bought a K-7 which reinvigorated Photography interest strongly.
This week I made an upgrade for a k-5 and now I looking forward of bringing my skill to next step :-)
I like shooting landscape, architecture and cars most.
Macro is also nice section.
What I like best about Pentax is having something that is a little bit aside the mainstream.
My current gear:
K-5 and K-7
D-BG4 currently shipping ;-)
DA 16-45
DA 18-55 WR
DA 18-135 WR
DA 35
Cosina Macro 105
Sigma 120-400 OS
AF-360 FGZ
Some manual focus stuff :-)
If you are interested in my shots, please browse to my pages below and leave comments or likes :-)
Thanks a lot an Br
Thomas

Thanks and sorry for disregarding the main rule of POTW.
These were all shot during my vacation which is already over :-( As you know, vacation is always too short there these shots are very recent for me. I'll do better next time :)
