Any Pentax users here?
Pentax and nothing but Pentax here
K20D.... K5... K3... even a K100D.... gifted a K7 to a brother and 11 lenses incl the 31mm and 60-250mm.
Finally retired all the old 35mm film rigs when i went digital.
KS-1, KS-2, and 15 lenses including my recent addition of the DA* 50-135mm which I love.
I have a Pentax K3 and I am quite happy with it. Take a little break from taking photo's due to a torn rotator cuff and pending surgery. I still enjoy looking about photos and reading about photos.
I have a K-5 and a K-3 and love them both and recommend them to anyone who will listen! I believe Pentax is the most underrated camera brand on the market.
Not alone ...
K3, K500, Q, K110D, K2, KX, MX, ME Super, Super-A, K1000, 645, Spotmatic F, Spotmatic SP, H2a and countless lenses. All much to my wife's chagrin! :D

I have 4 Pentax DSLR's including a K-1 and 70+ film SLR's, from 110's to 6x7's. You are not alone.
I am one, and extremely happy with it. Have a K-5 Special Edition and a K-1. Multiple lenses, many of them from the film day, both manual and AF.
We are not alone nor on the back of the bus. Check out 2 forums on Facebook: PENTAX K-1 Full FRAME USERS and Pentax Camera Users.
Who gives a flip that Pentax is not in the top 10 DSLR sellers?
Best,

Pentaxian First Class reporting for duty. My K-5 and K-R are cleaned, locked, loaded and ready for action.
my ship came in the same time as the pentax 645 was introduced. it is now my fun camera with 7 nice lenses. I bought it vecause I could and to leave less for m heirs to fight over.
I use Pentax K3 and Pentax K10, with a wide variety of lenses from Pentax, Ashi, and third parties.
My first SLR was a Pentax SF 10 and when I chose to go digital, I went with Pentax as they were the only manufacturer I was aware of at the time whose DSLR would accept older K-mount lenses which I already owned several. I am now on my second Pentax DSLR and still have and use my first. I particularly like the fact that Pentax chose to incorporate the shake reduction feature in the camera body rather than in the lens as other makes have done. This allows Pentax owners to take advantage of this feature using older lenses in their collection.
I have a Pentax 645n has auto focus and matrix metering FA75 mm 2.8 auto focus lens , SMC45mm 2.8 manual focus lens , 120 back with dark case ,spare 220 back converted to 120 back , pentax AF- 500FTZ flash with remote cable , wired pentax remote . Thinking of selling need a 16 - 35 f4 vr nikkor for My D810 ,may sell pentax gear for $750.00
