Hi from Spain.

[charlesbukowski]

Hello everyone. I'm using a Pentax K-5 but need to always carry a camera with me and I can only say I am very happy with the decision to buy a GRD III. I think my next camera will be the GXR. I am Spanish and my English level is intermediate or basic so my participation in the forum will grow when my level of English grows. I have proposed as a target for this year to learn English for good. Now I write with the help of Google translator.
Thank you.
Regards.

Hi charlesbukowski (I like your nickname!), greetings from Switzerland!
We do have some things in common, I use my Ricoh digicams (GRD I and GX100) when my Pentax DSLR (K-x) is too cumbersome or not discreet enough. I bought them both on ebay just 2 weeks ago and simply love them, they are so great and fun to use. (actually we are both anticipating the Ricoh-Pentax-acquisition, right? If managed well by Ricoh, I expect some great cameras to come out of it and think both brands have a lot in common)
Nice pictures you have on Flickr, especially the aerial view of Talinn is great. Reminds me of my visit there and your B&W picture captures this special, timeless atmosphere well.

have fun shooting!

Thank you for your welcome. That's what I think and hope so.

That's what I think and hope. Together with Leica, the Pentax and Ricoh cameras are my favorites. I think they are "special" and different.
I intend to visit Switzerland some day with my future GXR. It seems an incredible place.
Thanks again. Greetings.
