    I am Jerry from Amsterdam, New York. It is an old mill town in upstate New York on the Mohawk River. I've been a photographer for over 40 years, starting out in 1969 with a Kodak instamatic 124 camera, moved on to a Pentax Spotmatic F in 1975, then the world of autofocus cameras with the Minolta Maxxum system in 1985. My first digital camera was the FujiFilm MX-2900 in 1999 followed by an Olympus E-10 in 2001. Then I moved on the Canon EOS 1Ds in 2003, buying into the pro line of lenses and accessories. I added a Canon EOS 7D in 2009. 
     
    This year I decided to sell all of the heavy SLR gear and move to mirrorless. I currently own a Canon EOS-M3 with four EOS-M lenses. While it is a great little camera, it is a little too small.  I think Canon has lost touch with consumers and are only concerned with profitability. They refused to market their mirrorless line in the US ( I bought my EOS M3 direct from Japan on eBay). I recently bought the FujiFilm X-T1 with XF 18-135mm R OIS WR lens and tomorrow will receive the XF 11-24 R OIS lens.
     
    I really love the FujiFilm X-T1, the manual controls are well thought out and intuitive. I like how FujiFilm as a company listens to the consumers and adjusts their firmware accordingly. The X-T1 produces beautiful images with excellent color reproduction straight out of the camera. I am finding less need to shoot RAW.
