Hi, I am Ken returning to photography after break of 40 years spent as a holiday snapper, so I am so rusty, I consider myself a mature newbie.
I have a Zenit B a Nikon F50 for that stuff called film and my pride and joy.....a Pentax K30 with kit lenses.(18-50mm and 50-200mm)
Am reading so many books to wake up the grey cells and starting an 8 week refresher course at college in April.
Waiting for delivery of a Metz flash AF58 ii( present from missis).
Can anyone guide me towards a cheaper Wireless shutter release cum flash trigger that works reliably and advise me about a walk about lens?
I am looking at the pentax 18 -135 WR or 18 -270 but I might have to sell my kidneys...
Glad to be here.
Best wishes to all.
