Hello Brad from Fort Smith, AR. My goal for this year to purchase a DSLR. I have had a variety cameras over the years. I still have a working Pentax ME. I enjoy shooting nature, birds, landscapes. I'm interested in the K-S2, as my camera choice.

Hi Brad I've got a Pentax 5ll, the good thing about Pentax they all take old lenses.
I'm sure the camera you buy you will be pleased with, good shooting

HI Brad.
I'm in the same boat as others. Started with ME Super, then moved on to DSLR.
As has been said, the beauty with Pentax is that you can use your old lenses. (Or buy older lenses at a great price!)

Getting there! Thanks to you guys

Pentax K3ii, Pentax K10d, Kit lens ( 18-55mm ), 50mm f1.7 lens, Tamron 70-300mm lens, Prinzflex 70-162 manual lens, Various old flashes.
