Hello from France !

[Dominique_R]

Hi guys (and gals),

 

I'm Dominique, Nikon user from my days in high school (that would be the 1970s), converted to Fuji two years ago when I decided to buy an X-Pro 1 and a few lenses to make up an alternate, lighter kit designed mainly for summer vacations, when one is less prone to lugging around a quantity of heavy gear.

 

I am quite happy with my Fuji gear, I wait expectantly for the X-Pro 2 to be launched, but I retain my Nikon/Zeiss gear (with even a small dose of Sigma) which I keep using with as mcuh pleasure as always.

 

Born and bred in Paris where I lived for most of my life (except for some time in the US), I now share my time between the city of Lyon, second largest in France, and Brittany.

 

I like to define myself as a "heritage photographer", which means that my main interests are towards landscape, old stones, but also wildlife and a few selected sports (eventing and classic yacht regattas).

 

I have enjoyed reading Fujirumors since I became an X photographer (and even before), and so it makes sense for me to also participate in the forum.
