Hello :)

Hello. I've just been browsing around the forum really seeing what cameras people got and what they are thinking about them.

I'm completely torn between buying a K-R, K7 or K5 because my uncle used to have the pentax film camera, and he has plenty of lenses that my dad given to me and said that I can use.

um... not sure what else to mention really...

erm? happy snapping all?

Thanks Frogfish and Paul. I've been toying with the idea about getting the K5 which I think I will go somewhere which sells it, if I can and take the lens along with me to make sure they work .

I'm just slightly worry that it's just going to go completely over my head, but I'm hoping that because it's the summer holiday, I'll persevere and be able to take awesome pictures eventually with the camera.

Hi Anna.

Which ever camera you choose, if it’s a “Pentax“, you will be very pleased with its operation.


Take care.

Buy the best one you can afford otherwise you'll end up like me and always want the next model up!
