I have the K30 and I am still learning, my next lens might be an wide angle but I am not confident as yet in changing lenses. How are you going to keep your portfolio?
Always be kind to people

Welcome. Good choice of camera, it is a massive step from 35mm, but you will know the essentials of good photography from that previous experience. My step was similar; Pentax MX to Pentax K-5, and very enjoyable.

I've got myself booked into an Intro to digital photography course next month. Hopefully after that I will know how to use it and not just always use auto...

Thank you everyone for saying hello. Hopefully I will soon learn how to use the camera fully and post some better photos

Welcome from me too. The forum and the community in general is a great way to learn, especially if you can meet up with some of the members and go out on some shoots.
Best wishes

The K30 is a great camera, very nice to hold and has more features on it than I will probably ever use I have a good collection of lenses for my old SLR so I am happy with changing lenses on the K30. What lenses do you have? I've got the standard lens and managed to get a Samsung 50-200 lens cheap. Hopefully I'll put more photos up on FaceBook when I take some

18-55. I'm a bit nervous about changing lenses as I am worried I might damage the pins in the process.

Hopefully this camera will get me back into photography and allow me to build a good portfolio.
