Hi all

Thought I'd better do the done thing and say hello on here - i may be asking a few questions.

I bought myself a K-M yesterday from Currys of all places - it came with 2 lenses an 18-55 and a 50 -200

I am new to SLRs only a Panasonic Bridge camera before and various compacts - I went for the Pentax on the strength of the reviews and the fact that its quite small - it also just felt right !

Oh and I got tired of people telling me to buy a Nikon/Canon.....

Anyone I've got lots of questions to ask about batteries and bags so I'll take a wander around

thanks

Justin
