I just got a new digital camera! It's a single lens reflex camera (SLR), so I have a lot more manual controls. I was happy with what I had before but I've always enjoyed photography. I don't like it when people just get the "latest thing", so I tried to get what makes sense for me. While researching cameras, I found that the digital Pentax cameras are compatible with older Pentax lenses (I think that Pentax is the only brand doing that). That is awesome for me because I've had a 35mm SLR collecting dust in my office for a few years now (who wants to develop film anymore?). I had the kit lens that came with my original Pentax camera and a Sigma telephoto lens. I've tried both on my new camera and they work (with some tweaking... people who don't want to mess around with settings shouldn't get one of these)!I know that there are bigger names in the camera business but I feel loyal toward Pentax. They seem to make affordable cameras that work very well. I've taken a bunch of pictures so far, just trying to get my feel for the features and getting used to use an SLR camera again (I've been using point-and-shoot). Here are a couple of examples of my photos so far:
I am looking forward to re-shooting all of my jewelry with my new camera. :)
