Good evening Fujifans.

 

My name is Marc and I have been photographing since the early 1970s starting with a Zenit B! My first digital camera was a Nikon D100 and I stuck with Nikon for many years ending with a D2x and D3 and too many lenses. I had a brief sojourn with a Leica M6 but when Fuji introduced the X100 I had to buy one and the Nikon kit was stored away in the study, the Leica was sold. Then came an X-Pro1. In October 17 I part exchanged all my old Nikon and Fuji kit for the stuff in my signature. It has reignited my interest and passion in photography but I am still to put the kit truly to the test. 

 

Anyhow, this looks like a great site and I look forward to learning and contributing where I can.

Welcome, I share your life long photography hobby, with a few small sales under my belt. I started with a box Brownie, until the bottom fell out as we went under London Bridge! I cannot remember what came next. I did have a flirt with Pentax for awhile, Fujifilm 35mm camera, then Canon AE-1, then Leica - but now I am a Fuji guy. 100F/XE-2/GFX. They all have their uses and I am enjoying them and a renewed interest in photography.

Good morning Bob, from over the border in Middlesex, near to Heathrow. I have had an almost identical journey from Nikon to Fuji. Spent way too much money of course over the last two years!

 

 

Thank you. I was quite surprised what return I got on the Nikon kit to be honest. I am sill in credit with the camera shop where I did the PX, and that excludes my Nikon 300mm f2.8 which was sold privately. Fuji kit is not only great (as we all know) but to me also very reasonable!
