It’s official folks Britain has now got its own official ambassador for Pentax. What an absolute achievement Lee well done Sir.
You would think! Maybe they just don't tell you if that's the case 😂
In all seriousness I'm very grateful & appreciative to have the opportunity to work with Ricoh & Pentax. It's still crazy to me that it's sort of come full circle from when I first started out researching which camera would suit me the best, leading me to buy my first DSLR camera, the Pentax K-70!
Timeless photography. Just like the vinyl records and turntables, there is something in them that connects to the user. Well done Pentax.
It's beautiful!
I agree! Love the aesthetics of the camera. Now I'm looking forward to shooting film for the first time 📷
Congrats Lee! I wish Pentax North America paid as much attention as Pentax Europe lol. Anyways, I love the concept of the 17, focus zones, auto modes, it's like the perfect point and shoot walk around film camera that still allows for some creative freedom. Can't wait to hear your thoughts and see the results!
Cheers Kobie! You should get onto them, your holding the fort down for the Pentaxians in North America! Yeah I think it will be the perfect walk around point & shoot for film shooters no doubt! I'm pretty excited to get stuck into learning, as I've only ever shot digital!
Kudos to Pentax for catering for niche areas, like OVFs and film. I hope the 17 is a raging success!
Nice one Lee! I'm happy you got that in-hand. Your awesome work here on TH-cam has its well-deserved perks.
🍻
Thanks mate, I appreciate that! Now . . . I need to learn how to shoot film! Which I'm super excited to do 😀
@@LeeIveson It isn't all that different. Trust the light meter. 😅
Big part of the fun, is that you become less consumed with checking each shot ('cause you can't!! 😂). But, you also appreciate how each shot counts just a little more.
Oh, btw, don't "worry" too much. Film has a much greater dynamic range. So you don't need a histogram, there is no "clipping" of highlights either.
Have fun!!!
@@GODSPEEDseven Thanks for the advice! It will be strange not being able to check the shots, but it should make me think more about my composition & lighting conditions. Sounds like exposing to the left is not the way to go, ETTR here I come!
Que des boss chez Pentax
Wow cant for this one well done Pentax 👏
Nice job Lee. Looking forward to a walkabout review.
Them crazy Pentax guys! Going backwards is the new way forwards in three easy steps, first to B & W, second to film and third to pencil and paper? I'm going to dig out my Zenit E. 🤣🤣
They don't follow the crowd that's for sure! It's going to be interesting to see how this camera is received, I'm a total newbie to film and really looking forward to the experience to be fair 😀
Omg! I want one! ❤😍🤪
I've watched your videos ever since I bought a Pentax k20d because you were like the only youtuber covering Pentax cameras (your work is great too but that's besides the point). Feel really happy for you for getting recognition from Pentax and looking forward to your review!
Thanks buddy I really appreciate the support 🙏
Now for a test run. 😎
Definitely! It came just in time so didn't have time to test it out, but I'm looking forward to what will be my first time shooting film!
Well done Lee, Pentax is obviously appreciative of your work. As for the camera it’s a nice looking piece of kit but at almost £500 it’s not for me so I’ll keep beavering away with my Pentax ME which cost the princely sum of £8 last year. Plus that £8 is far less than the cost of a roll of film and or developing. What I would like though is an upgrade to the K1ii with ideally a focus bracketing option.
i new it :D
