About this episode

Mario Piper discusses his favorite Pentax K Series cameras and related photography topics.

In this episode I talk about some of my favorite cameras of all time, the Pentax K Series cameras. I talk about the K Mount, the KM, KX, K2, K2DMD, and the K1000, and how they continue the tradition of the Spotmatic cameras that preceded them, and how they built upon them. I also talk a little about buying lenses on eBay, and some things to be aware of. In addition, I talk a little about Epson's Digital ICE technology and its plain dust removal technology. I hope you enjoy, and I thank you for listening.
