Re: My best Pentax camera story

As a young lad making no money I had a Pentax K1000, with a 35 2.4 and 50 mm 1.7.
Flash forward 20 years or so and I get a Pentax K100d because I had read on here that my old lenses would work on it. Little did I know I had made a camera PLATFORM decision based on about 50 dollars worth of lenses.
I learned more about photography and exposure in the first two months of digital ownership than I had learned in twenty years of shooting film.
I went on to have a K20 / KX and a K-01.. my friend just bought a KP, I got to shoot it for a few days and it is the best of the crop sensors I have shot with.
Now as an old lad with no money, I can't really afford to upgrade to a KP or whatever heads down the line... but if and when I do, I have a FA77 and some really nice lenses Old and new lenses to pair with it.
Thanks Pentax

I hope you get your KP one of these days. Great story, great images!
