Hello all,

I've been a forum lurker on and off for a few years. Recently upgraded my K100d to a K-7 and loving it. Currently I have my old 18-55 kit lens and an FA 80-200 f4.7-5.6 lens. I enjoy playing with my camera, however I still think I have a fair way to go before I can consider my self an amature photographer.

Ha ha sold mine last week for 450 notes. Now I'm feeling a bit exposed with only the K5 and no back up (no I lie, I do believe I have an ME Super downstairs somewhere) !


And welcome Neil - fine camera you have there !

I bought myself a Panasonic LX5 as a carry round camera but to be honest I am beginning to regret selling the K-7 now.

Thanks for the welcome. Now all I need to do is avoid LBA.

I agree with Barrie, LBA is a Virus and your computer caught it as soon as you logged on, it was then transmitted to you via contact with the keyboard, there is no hope, resistance is futile

But welcome to LBA annonymous anyway

As soon as you buy a camera, you're an amateur...or did you leave the space out between a and mature?
