Just starting out on this forum, as I have just returned to the SLR world, after some years with Compacts and Bridge cameras. My last SLR was a Minolta XGM (is that showing my age?).

Anyway just bought a new K-R with 18-55mm DAL Lens, and picked up a 75-300 FA J on E Bay. Picked up a link to here from Talk Photography forum.

Now just got to work out all the settings and remember what to do!!

Welcome to the forum. Before getting a DSLR my previous camera was also a Minolta, many moons ago...

Enjoy the K-R. Lots of friendly folk here to help us learn!
