pentax kx question

[simba]

i need bit of advice please guys and gals i have a very old but good pentax slr with a few lenses and i hear that these should cross over onto dslr pentax but do any of you have any experience with the kx ? its a good price and i think good features but advice would be greatly appreciated

I have never had any dealings with Pentax.

It looks pretty good though and you don't get TIPA awards for nothing

I would check about the lenses though. It's not always a given that they will transfer to DSLR. Also, not knowing the spec of your film SLR, will they be suitable with a CMOS Sensor?

Give Park Camera's a call, write down the lens specs you have and they will be able to confirm. For the price of a call, it's worth a check.

Thats typical, I was editing on the fly then and updated.

Even if only one of your lenses is compatible, it might be worthwhile doing it.

It's worth it I think. If none are compatible, the world is then your oyster. There are some great bundle packages about at the moment.

Cheers matey It's getting there, slowly but surely.
