K7 you lucky man! No excuses for not producing eyewatering photos!
Welcome to the forum: you won't regret joining. I've learnt so much already! (And not just about photography.)
"indulgent" K7 and two lenses? Surely not!
Best wishes,
Andrew

Welcome to the fora. I've learnt a great deal since I joined, and you've made a good start with an excellent choice of camera.

Lots of film bodies, a couple of digital ones, too many lenses (mainly older glass) and a Horseman LE 5x4.

Last year I purchased an Epson V750 scanner to start scanning the thousands of negatives /slides that I had taken in the 70's/80's and this little project (ongoing by the way) re-ignited my interest in photography. Having previously used an Olympus OM-10 and Penatx SF-7 I decided to start afresh with a new camera and after many hours of looking over reviews etc, I took the plunge and purchased a K-7 with both kit lenses.
So far very pleased with my purchase although taking time to get to grips with everything. Took some advice and ditched the manual for a copy of the excellent Magic Lantern guide, so I am now trying to re-learn the art of photography with a camera which I bought to grow in to..
I've got a full time job so this is purely an indulgent hobby but I hope to learn from this forum and maybe one day will get some photos on the forum
