My new camera!

My new camera arrived today! It's a Pentax K-30 in a snazzy Crystal Blue colour, and it has more bells and whistles than my older one. (Which I am still very happy with, by the way).  Funny thing is, though, I am feeling quite disloyal to my beloved Pentax KM, like I am betraying her somehow.  (Yes, I know I said 'her' instead of 'it', but she's been my BFF for quite some time now. I'll probably end up having a heart-to-heart talk with KiMmy, telling her that she's still loved by me, it's just there is room in my heart for another Pentax sibling. (Not that I'm anthromorphizing or anything ...)) But she'll have to share her camera bag and tripods. Oh - and her lenses too, seeing as this new one is quite blind without them. (I bought her 'lens-less', because I have several and they are interchangeable.)

Anyway, here is my new family member ... I mean, camera ...

I have to figure out a name now.  Maybe Penny.  Hmmmm.....

  1. A belated congrats on your new camera! It's great to see another Pentaxian, as we seem to be so rare here in the US. (I have a K-5)

  3. Thank you, Priya! Yes, it's always good to see another Pentaxian. I am in Canada, but it's the same here, I find, as in the States. People usually go for Canons or Nikons, I think, because of all the advertising put out by both those companies. Pentax needs to advertise more! I think people are missing out on how great Pentax cameras are, myself! ;)
