Anything from 85mm to 105mm is a fairly standard portrait lens for 35mm. You can find a few Pentax K-mount lenses online, but it's getting harder as we go because the K1000 hasn't been made in decades.

When would it be best to choose a landscape orientation?

The terms portrait and landscape orientation are largely self explanatory. When you want to photograph a subject and specifically highlight the subject's appearance, portrait orientation is generally best. If you are shooting a scene where there are several points of interest roughly along horizontal dimensions, or where it would seem natural to use a wider lens to capture left and right elements together in the shot, then a landscape orientation is generally best. The photographer begins composition at the moment she/he shoots, and the choice of orientation will be reflected in the photographer's instinctive and almost instantaneous positioning of the camera at the moment of shooting. With standard SLR camera formats, a photographer's hands will hold the camera on the left and right sides when shooting in the landscape orientation, and when the photographer is moved to initially set the shot as a portrait, you will see the photographer hold the camera with one hand above the other.

Pentax Can in interchangeable lenz for K1000 be used to the new Digital Pentax?

Yes, perfectly without problems. Metering will work so there is no guesswork needed while in manual mode. The best part is, even if you have a manual focus lens, it will be supported by Shake Reduction and focus confirmation.


What do you think about Pentax?

I have owned Pentax cameras since the K1000. I currently have my original K1000, which is my preferred film camera, and a K10D. I've used the other three major products. Of them, I like Nikon the best -- have owned several -- but I still swear by Pentax. Caveat: the K20D (current version) is not a beginner's camera. Also, I'm not knocking Canon, Olympus and Nikon. Sony, who bought Minolta, are producing first class equipment too. This is a matter of personal preference. Any of the major brands are great equipment. Also, I'm referring to SLRs. In the smaller cameras, I would go with any of the name brands. Keep the pixel count as low as possible. You don't need more than 10 MP, and the higher you go with a small sensor, the more noise you get in low light. If you want to pay the money, you can't beat the Canon G9.

What is the best color backdrop to use when taking a portrait photograph?

The best color backdrop to use when taking a portrait photograph would be very dependent on the color of the skin, the clothing, and the occasion. If it is a wedding, a white backdrop would never be a bad choice as the bride and groom will typically wear black and white. For other occasions, it would be best to just judge by the eye as one backdrop is not the right choice for everyone.
