Retired amateur photographer who has travelled widely in the past and cannot now do so.
My love was Kodachrome slide film as it gave the greatest range and consistency of exposure of any product I used. The K20D is the first digital camera which I saw which could come within range of the tonal range and sharpness of Kodachrome film.
Have used Leica, Contax,Exacta,Kodak, Nikon cameras, but since 1984 used First Pentax LX, Z1P,1stDS,and now a K20D
I have a whole series of Pentax and Sigma lenses dating from 1984 to present year.
