Hi,

Having just got my first digital Pentax (a K10D)I thought it was about time I joined this forum. I have used Pentax cameras for over 25 years after saving up to buy a Pentax MG (repaired once and still being used) in the early 80s.

Being a great fan of cameras I have various makes and have a Nikon dslr but could not resist returning to Pentax for my next dslr and am I glad I did - all my old lenses work without a problem and the K10D is really good to use.

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

Location details added.

Thanks everyone for welcoming me and thanks Greytop for your comments on my aircraft photos - they have been taken with various cameras -some with my Pentax MZ-7 that really need scanning again now that technology has moved on.

Now I just need to renew my magazine subscription.
