Feel free to post images on here as a means to get involved. I'd be interested in seeing how the K-70 and KP tackle aircraft.

They both tackle it well, as for airshows I’m sure I should have been at Cosford this weekend.One of my main interests is Aviation...must have taken thousands of such images over the years.

Hi
I’m Barry from Newcastle upon Tyne.
I’ve been a Pentax user since the days of the Spotmatic, today using the K70 and KP and eagerly awaiting the new flagship model.
I’ve only had one wobble where I almost ditched Pentax after my Ks2 and then my K50 failed due to the aperture block failure. The Ks2 I sold for spares and the K50 I had repaired by the Pentax agent in Uttoxeter, it lasted exactly 5 shots and ended up worse than it was before. It was repaired under warranty but on return it had other faults so I gave up and part exchanged it for the KP which I love.
My main interest is Aviation photography so now I’m waiting for things to get back to normal as the pandemic eases. That said I do maintain three Instagram sights for nature, aviation and rail.
I’m now struggling to get to grips with Macro after buying a Tamron SP90 but as of yet I’ll just say results are bad.
Best wishes to all.
