Hi guys, just logging In the first time so say hello!... Hello!
I'm new to photography other than point and shoot cameras.
I've fancied trying slr photography for a while now , so I bought myself a k30 a few months ago and have been bitten by the bug. I've since added a da* 55 f1.4 , a 50-200 wr and a sigma 10-20 f2.8 ex dg as well as the kit 18-55 wr.
After a fair amount of research I decided to upgrade to the k5 as I'm enjoying it so much.

I do a fair amount of cycling and motorcycling and feel these and photography go pretty much hand in hand . Looking forward to some warmer weather so I can go exploring for some nice shots.

Anyway, hello. I'm sure I will enjoy reading and learning from the posts written by you guys that know your stuff.

Darren

Hi Darren.

Enjoy the K5, and your motorcycling I used to love motorcycling, but due to health problems I am now unable to ride, still kept my full licence though.

Merry Christmas, and a happy new year, hope you get many happy hours on the saddle.

Take care.
Chris R.

Hello and Welcome

I also used to enjoy motorcycling (briefly) but being totally useless on a motorcycle made me realise that I should leave it alone
K10D, K5 plus plenty of clueless enthusiasm.

Welcome from Devon, after 23 motorbikes over the years I now just stick to the push-bikes.

Welcome aboard Darren, had a Douglas Dragonfly when I was a lad, wrapped it found a tractor. They mostly win, BUT, sometimes they don't.
I stick to 4 wheels and cameras now. Pete
