Formerly known as Mannesty on here and other fora.

My first SLR camera was a Pentax Super-A bought in the mid-'80s to photograph my family growing up. The next camera I bought in 2005 was a Pentax *ist-DS. I've used an array of Pentax APS-C bodies but due to the weight of those and the lenses to go with them, I now use an OM System OM-1 with an Olympus OM-D E-M1 for backup. Both are Micro 4/3rds cameras, and I have a range of lenses covering 8mm to 600mm, which equates to 16mm to 1200mm Full Frame FOV.

Born, lived, and worked in the UK until 2006 when I moved to Spain. Still livin' the dream.
