Back...with a new camera...

So...my sister asked me if I could shoot her wedding in the fall. I told her I would have to think about it a bit. So i did. Actually, more than a bit. I thought about it for a while and considered the pros and cons of such a venture. I decided that the pros outweighed the cons and said yes to shooting my sisters wedding...still photography that is. 

I've never shot a wedding before. I have with a video camera, but not a still camera. So, after much deliberation and discussion, Mrs. H and I decided to get a digital SLR. Now, Ive used strictly Pentax film cameras my whole life. I have a K1000 and a ZX-60.  I enjoy the layout of the Pentaxes and I've never had a problem with them. 

I looked at B&H Photo/Video. They are a great little store up in NY that I use to buy most of my video gear from. I checked out their website, bhphotovideo.com, and looked through their used section. Sure enough, there was a used Pentax *istd camera body for sale. I had read mainly good things about the camera and after much deliberation, sent the request to my purchasing dept. (the wife). I know...a used camera you say? Well, ive done enough business with B&H to know that they carry quality equipment, new and used. I trust what they send me will be high quality, and this Pentax camera is no different. Following is a shot with the new camera.
