The viaduct located at Porthkerry Park in Barry looking glorious this morning as the warm sun started to pierce through the colder air in the field.

@WelshPhotographer you've got a Pentax? Nobody has a Pentax these days! Have a K1000 & K-x

@rj07thomas I've been a Pentax digital shooter from way back when they brought out the *IstD! The cameras are amazing and blow the socks of the competition but they can't market themselves properly for toffee!
I recently had the K1000 also, but I sold it for my Z-1P, and I also have a Zoom 90 WR compact. Love shooting film, but it's getting pretty expensive at the moment!

@WelshPhotographer I got talked out of trading in my K1000 and am glad now - it's built like a tank and looks timeless! Have a bunch of k-mount lenses but don't use either of them enough - which is a bit criminal considering I live in wonderful Barrybados :-)

@rj07thomas you know if you bought a Pentax DSLR then your K mount lenses go straight on, it's the same mount, they never changed it. Another bonus is the camera bodies have in built image stabilisation so your old lenses are now image stabilised digital lenses 😎👌

The K1000 was a photographers camera. Totally reliable, built like a brick and never failed

@WelshPhotographer exactly why I bought the K-x! Finally got a fully automatic 70-210 zoom last year so it takes some of the confusion out of using it fully manually 😂
