I am a Pentax user. I joined this forum for several reasons. First, because the Pentax Forum which I assume is owned by the same people sent me an invite. Second, to enter the free camera giveaway though I suspect the chance of winning is very low. Lastly, because I'm considering switching from Pentax to Canon. I am quite please with Pentax gear, but am considering the switch because of lack of 3rd party support of Pentax. I'm a 71 year old amateur photographer who just enjoys taking pictures and doing the post-processing.
