good evening, i now own my pentax optio wx50 for one and half year. i bought it for my internship on an offshore vessel because it works with wet feet. During my intership i have made some nice photos.

I joined the forum to share my experiance and to get rid off my own question marks.

i have my own flickr site: http://www.flickr.com/photos/lol2be/

Welcome to the forums, had a look at your flickr stream, nice sunsets and nice bold colors on the ships.

Hi and welcome to the forum. Yours is a set of photographs, I found very interesting, and very few of us would have the chance of taking.

thank you, because only a view see these amazing world i would like to make even better photos to share them, i am now looking for an SLR to make even better pictures, when i came back i started to compare my photo´s on flickr with other photos and i started to annoy myself to the boundaries of the pixels with an regular compact camera, but with my student income it will take a while before buying.

Megapixels aren't everything.

I would happily drop a few if I got the chance to take some of the photos on your flickr

Perhaps picking up a second hand weatherproof body would be a good start - look at the Classified Ads section of the forum and see if there's a K10D or K20D at the right price.

The WR 18-55mm lens is available at quite a low price new from www.srsmicrosystems.co.uk and that would suit you well to start off with.
Best regards, John
