It's my mother-in-law and she is a small problem regarding photographing. She 
hates being taken photos of. I either need good tips for how to persuade her or 
I have to find someone else.

My idea is her lying on green grass with a red sweater, sun glasses and a 
cigarette, but she refuses.

I could not see what picture you liked because your link was to the album. 
You have to click on each picture until you get the largest version. Then 
you have a correct link for that picture. Or you can click the "permalink"

Subject: Well, hello


Instead of a test mail as my first mail here, I tought I could introduce 
myself.


I am living in Sandnes, Norway. Sandnes is a small town with 60.000 
citizens and in an area around Stavanger with nearly 250.000 citizens. Its 
on the west coast of Norway. I am 45 years old and don't have kids. In 
addition to take photographs, I like driving around on my BMW K1100RS 
motorcycle.


I started with SLRs when I was in the primary school and bought my first 
SLR when I was in the army. It was an east German Practica ( 
http://www.praktica-users.com/cams/bfirst/b200.html ), which lasted only a 
few weeks in the cold :-) My second camera was a Pentax Program A which I 
had for ages. It finally bit the dust on a trip to US when a dolfin in San 
Diego splashed a large amount of salt water over me. So I bought a MZ-5 
which was used until *istDS came around. I found *istD to be too expensive 
for what you get, but my *istDS was more affordable. I am still using my 
*istDS from time to time, but not much. Since then I have had a K10D for 
three years and a K-7 for three weeks.


Regarding lenses, I think I have a nice collection. My DA*16-50 is much 
used, but I have the 15, 21, 35 and 77 Limiteds and maybe my DA21/3.2 is 
my most used lens. Most of my older lenses was sold. I sold my 
FA*28-70/2.8 and don't regret it too much. I am thinking of selling my 
FA*80-200/2.8, but the new DA*60-250/4 is to expensive so I suppose I keep 
my 80-200.

Hei Stig Vidar,

I was member of Sandnes Fotoklubb from 1996 to 1998. Great bunch of
guys, and even a few gals. Lot of fun.

The PDML has become one of the more remote corners of Pentax
cyberspace. Glad you found your way here.

Welcome, Stig!

I think you have the best "my camera died" story I've heard in a

killed by a dolphin in San Diego... What are the odds!?


And what were you doing in San Diego, anyway?  : -)

Subject: Well, hello


Instead of a test mail as my first mail here, I tought I could introduce 
myself.


I am living in Sandnes, Norway. Sandnes is a small town with 60.000 
citizens and in an area around Stavanger with nearly 250.000 citizens. Its 
on the west coast of Norway. I am 45 years old and don't have kids. In 
addition to take photographs, I like driving around on my BMW K1100RS 
motorcycle.


I started with SLRs when I was in the primary school and bought my first 
SLR when I was in the army. It was an east German Practica ( 
http://www.praktica-users.com/cams/bfirst/b200.html ), which lasted only a 
few weeks in the cold :-) My second camera was a Pentax Program A which I 
had for ages. It finally bit the dust on a trip to US when a dolfin in San 
Diego splashed a large amount of salt water over me. So I bought a MZ-5 
which was used until *istDS came around. I found *istD to be too expensive 
for what you get, but my *istDS was more affordable. I am still using my 
*istDS from time to time, but not much. Since then I have had a K10D for 
three years and a K-7 for three weeks.


Regarding lenses, I think I have a nice collection. My DA*16-50 is much 
used, but I have the 15, 21, 35 and 77 Limiteds and maybe my DA21/3.2 is 
my most used lens. Most of my older lenses was sold. I sold my 
FA*28-70/2.8 and don't regret it too much. I am thinking of selling my 
FA*80-200/2.8, but the new DA*60-250/4 is to expensive so I suppose I keep 
my 80-200.

I have a K20D and a Triumph Sprint ST :)

Don't sell the 80-200/2.8 - you'll regret it forever.

Show us some photos; we're hoping they're awful because so far every
Norwegian on the list has turned out to be bloody brilliant and we
need someone to bring their average down ;-)

citizens and in an area around Stavanger with nearly 250.000
citizens. Its on the west coast of Norway. I am 45 years old and
don't have kids. In addition to take photographs, I like driving
around on my BMW K1100RS motorcycle.

I started with SLRs when I was in the primary school and bought my
first SLR when I was in the army. It was an east German Practica (
http://www.praktica-users.com/cams/bfirst/b200.html ), which lasted
only a few weeks in the cold  :-)  My second camera was a Pentax
Program A which I had for ages. It finally bit the dust on a trip to
US when a dolfin in San Diego splashed a large amount of salt water
over me. So I bought a MZ-5 which was used until *istDS came around.
I found *istD to be too expensive for what you get, but my *istDS was
more affordable. I am still using my *istDS from time to time, but
not much. Since then I have had a K10D for three years and a K-7 for
three weeks.

Regarding lenses, I think I have a nice collection. My DA*16-50 is
much used, but I have the 15, 21, 35 and 77 Limiteds and maybe my
DA21/3.2 is my most used lens. Most of my older lenses was sold. I
sold my FA*28-70/2.8 and don't regret it too much. I am thinking of
selling my FA*80-200/2.8, but the new DA*60-250/4 is to expensive so
I suppose I keep my 80-200.


Welcome. My first SLR was also a Praktica before I discovered Pentax.

Welcome, Stig. Glad to have you in the group! We can be a bit crazy,  
overly opinionated, and confused about most everything. Makes for good  
reading. As a bonus, there are a bunch of really good photographs  
posted quite regularly.

Well, hello

[SV Hovland]

Instead of a test mail as my first mail here, I tought I could introduce myself.

I am living in Sandnes, Norway. Sandnes is a small town with 60.000 citizens 
and in an area around Stavanger with nearly 250.000 citizens. Its on the west 
coast of Norway. I am 45 years old and don't have kids. In addition to take 
photographs, I like driving around on my BMW K1100RS motorcycle.

I started with SLRs when I was in the primary school and bought my first SLR 
when I was in the army. It was an east German Practica ( 
http://www.praktica-users.com/cams/bfirst/b200.html ), which lasted only a few 
weeks in the cold :-) My second camera was a Pentax Program A which I had for 
ages. It finally bit the dust on a trip to US when a dolfin in San Diego 
splashed a large amount of salt water over me. So I bought a MZ-5 which was 
used until *istDS came around. I found *istD to be too expensive for what you 
get, but my *istDS was more affordable. I am still using my *istDS from time to 
time, but not much. Since then I have had a K10D for three years and a K-7 for

it too much. I am thinking of selling my FA*80-200/2.8, but the new DA*60-250/4 
is to expensive so I suppose I keep my 80-200.
