with my Pentax K1000

I seriously want the Pentax 50mm f1.4

My current 50mm of choice is an Auto Sears f1.7 and don’t let the “Auto” fool you, that thing is all manual. Not that I have anything against it being manual, there are some situations where AF is a HUGE plus. Before that, my 50 of choice was a Pentax smc M f2. Why downgrade to a Sears branded Ricoh? The rich colors, awesome contrast, and incredible sharpness, even more than the vintage Pentax. If only Pentax made a 50mm AF that was along the lines of the Canon 50mm f1.8 at around the same price. Oh well…

Saddens me to see one of my favorite pro Pentax shooters “falling” to Canon

I’m not saying that Canon sucks or that Pentax is the best, but I am saying that it’s sad to lose someone who was really doing well with an “underdog” camera. 

Finally joined Pentax Forums today

And its about time. I’ve been using Pentax for a long time and I’m just now getting in on the good stuff.

Hoping to acquire a Pentax Spotmatic and some good old lenses by the end of the week

Along with a very nice bag, lens cases, and a flash unit. Hopefully I can get it all…

Anyone know the cheapest place to get a Pentax K-5?

I mean VERY cheap. That and/or some Pentax DA* telephoto lenses like the 60-250mm f4 of the 300mm f4. I’m looking into an upgrade on glass and something that shoots video.

The two Asahi lenses on each side of the screen make me even happier to own many a Pentax.

I really want the Pentax SMC 60-250mm F4 DA* ED IF SDM

But its WAY outta my league as far as price, sadly.

Who out there shoots Pentax DSLRs?

I shoot the 20D and after reading the specs on the K5 I think I’m in love…
