Hello Everyone!
This summer I'm checking off a bucket list item and heading to Glacier NP. For this adventure I think it's time I buy a real camera. I have very little requirements on what camera I should get but after poking around I came across the Pentax Cameras (K50,K70, KS2) and I really liked those ones because of the weather proofing they tout. I intend to do extensive strenuous hiking while at Glacier with the camera which is why the Pentax caught my eye. It may be a gimmick, if so just let me know.
My real goal with the camera is to get a panorama or a wide angle shot that I can have printed on canvas and hang in my living room. I'm thinking something along the lines of 12"x48" or 24"x28".
So I think my real question is 3 fold. Are the Pentax's worth looking at, will the camera be able to accomplish the panorama / wide angle picture I'm looking for and what kind of Lens will I need for it?
I'm thinking I will end up with 2 lenses, a good general purpose lens and one for the wide angle shot!
Thanks in advance!
