Hello All,
I've always loved photography and used to always carry a camera in my pocket!! I've obviously changed with the times and nowadays it's a mobile phone and tablet that take up the room!
So... I recently decided to go back to Camera-Love... and decided that I'd buy a film SLR. The only camera I currently have is a digital compact - and even though the images are a delight I've always wanted an SLR. Leaving my youthful ideas of good equalling expensive behind I decided to go for film - which is where I started! So I've acquired an old Pentax ME Super and am just dipping my toes back into the old pool! I expect I'll have to have the camera overhauled sooner or later - but I already love it!!! Not that I've much of a clue about how to use it at its best as yet - but I'm in for the long haul and am more than willing to learn!
So I'll be haunting the 'Film SLR' forum for a while - but just wanted to say hello and introduce myself!
Cheerio just now!

Thanks for the welcome! This is certainly an interesting place to mooch about - but I had forgotten that photography also involves learning a new language!!! I'm wondering if it has a name?? Photish? Engography? Photoglish? Um I think I like Photoglish the best - I'm writing that on my resume!!!
