<p>I first started using Pentax equipment in the early 70's when I got a new K2, 35mm SLR. It was the first of a long line of K-mount bodies. I gradually amassed a small collection of lenses which I continue to use today, thanks to the Pentax tradition of making their new equipment backward-compatible.<br>
<br /> When Pentax entered the DSLR market, I was the first one on my block to get an *ist DS -- silly name, but a great camera. Having recently graduated to a new K7, I enjoy it, and all my old and new lenses every day. So far, I have the 21mm, and the 40mm primes -- two of the three lenses that Ned designed the new case for. The K7 is a real jewel of a camera, and I am constantly amazed every time I 'discover' a new feature.</p>
