Hi, I'm 72, live with my wife in Inverness UK.My Pentax camera is an OPTIO 555 the pics I eventually put into my gallery (until I upgrade) will have been taken with this humble camera,5 megapix. & 5X zoom. Some of which are tweaked in Photoshop,I hope you like them. I am looking to update to a DSLR but there are so many options I'm at a stand still at the moment, looking at the superb quality of the pics in the gallery which lenses to select is a bit of a dilemma, we'll see.!!!

Hi Jacko and welcome.

Looked at your portfolio, you have some lovely pictures. If you do upgrade to DSLR I am sure you will love the results.
