I hear words like amateur, beginner, and novice to describe people like me who are only embarking on a journey into photography. I do not have specific advice or tips at this point to share, but instead a truth I have told myself. Every photographer starts somewhere. Find something that speaks to you and capture it, whether it be Mother Nature, a stunning creation, or the beauty of people. Photographs unlock artistic vision and passion for cementing what makes us who we are as individuals.


Taken with Pentax K-50.

I like using her K-x ok, but I really miss the dual control dials that my K10D has, it'll be nice to have them on her camera now.

I wanted to get her a K3 or K3 II, but I think that'll be my next camera, I'm thinking there should be a price drop pretty soon when Pentax releases it's next model.

Copy and paste the link it gives you in the box below directly into the reply box here in the thread (no need to add anything extra). Preview the post to make sure it looks good. :-) Post away!

K-S2 wifi with laptop?

What you need to do is run an Android emulator on your laptop, and then run the Android app within that emulator. As far as I can tell, the K-S2 doesn't use HTML to communicate with mobile devices (unlike the Flu-card), so opening a browser won't be enough. I'm not familiar with Android emulators, but considering that multi-core laptops have far more processing power than smartphones, if the emulator is any good, the experience should be better than using a smartphone. Here is a link to various emulators that I found.

Nice shots. I really like the building, neat place and it shows off the resolution of the K-S2- and also your Promaster lens is crazy sharp!

If you want a cheap auto-focus zoom that has pretty decent IQ, I suggest either the Tamron 28-200mm or the rebadged Promaster 28-200mm. I have both and they are on my camera and my wife's camera most of the time. I've bought mine off E-bay for between $40 and $50 with hood. I'm pretty sure the Pentax FA 28-200 is the same Tamron lens. All of these lenses are heavy.

There are 3 versions of the older Tamron lens --> Tamron 28-200 differences. My Promaster is the 371D model and my Tamron is the 571D.

This Promaster version on E-bay looks like the 571D model.

And here is a Tamron 571D model.

Here are a couple of shots from the Promaster version.
