Hello list When I wanted somthing better than my first slr - the Yashica TL Electro-X, I went to a shop the buy an Olympus OM-1. But the guy in the shop convinced my to buy a Pentax MX (which I did), since I remembered, that I had earlier used a Pentax lens for my Yashica. The results from this lens (a 35mm for Spotmatic) came out so nice, that the guy in the shop really had no difficulties in convincing me to buy the MX (still got one). This happened in 1981. I have been using Pentax cameras ever since. But if this happended today, I don't know what would happen. The guy in the shop would probably tell me to get a Canon, Nikon or Sony, like almost everybody else...
How would you convince a beginner to get a Pentax? What would you buy, if you were a beginner?
