Hi everyone -
As way of introduction, I recently acquired a Fuji X100 RF. I am a long-time Olympus user, but acquired a pair of Sigma dp quattro cameras (dp1, dp0) for their image quality and used them primarily in monochrome mode, 21:9 format. I've been doing panorama photos for a long time (was a beta tester for Gigapan back when they were first testing their concept) and have several hundred very large scale panoramas under my belt, a number of which were sold to places like advertising agencies for decorating their heaquarters. I've spent my working career (retired now) as an industrial economist, senior rating analyst and senior manager in the rating industry.
I've had several Fuji analogue cameras, both medium format, a GS W 645 and a much beloved GS W 69, but moved to Pentax 67 for greater flexibility. I am largely a travel, landscape and cityscape photographer. I've been to Iceland 11 times, the Southwest of the US more times than I can count, and most recently 4 times to Japan.
I've been involved in social media before it was social media (first email account in 1986, and used to be very active in FidoNet and later UseNet groups before they were swallowed by Google and became useless due to spam.
I've been in Germany with few exceptions since 1980, married with adult children in London, and am looking forward to seeing how this forum compares and what I can contribute.
