Hello im new too I've just found this group and thought it best t introduce myself
I've been using Pentax equipment for the last 20 years having started from film with a P30n and a sfxn cameras which were great and I've now finally taken the plunge to digital media having got myself a the Kr twin lens kit im not finding it as intuitive to use but im sure in time I'll get the hang of it My initial thoughts were that its got so many settings and features to check and use that it detracts from the process of taking photos, perhaps im just a bit if a luddite and old school in this respect but the lack o f film availability and processing has finally made me take a step into the digital world

thanks Geordie01 I was wondering if id made a wrong decision in buying the Kr. I haven't found it to be the most intuitive of cameras to use so far but im sure in time and a bit more 'playing 'with it that I'll get to grips with it. have you got any useful tips which you'd care to share with me?

I joined the forum when I bought a K7 through SRS in Jan 2010.
I have been a Pentax user since the 1980s when I had an SF7. I moved to digital about 10 years ago with the istDS and progressed through various models from a K10 to a K5 and this week to a shiny new K3.
