Hello there!

Hello!

I'm Konzy, a 28 years old french dude living in Munich, Germany. I discovered photography 6 years ago, like many of us with an entry level DSLR. It became a passion as I was studying in Finland. I had the opportunity to explore the beautiful cities and landscapes of Scandinavia, Russia and the Baltic countries!

 

As my passion grew, I also got more confident and my photographic style evolved quite a lot in the past few years: less landscapes, but more people and more street stuff. Two years ago, quickly after switching to the full frame world, I bought a used X100 that I planned to use as a second body... But totally fell in love with it! 

 

Soon after, I guess like many of us here, I sold all my DSLR equipment and bought an X-T1 with a couple lenses. I'm so happy I did it, as the mirrorless cameras are much lighter than DSLR. And less weight means more pictures!

 

My only disappointment is that I can't do macro photography as I used to. I really miss my Nikon 105mm, especially after switching to FF, which has no equivalent (yet) in the Fuji world. My best photographs were done with this lens, and I'm a bit frustrated not to be able to do it with Fuji. I can't wait to see the next macro lens by Fuji!

 

In the meantime, I found myself more and more interested in street photography. It's something at which I'm still new, but I really love it! I believe that almost everything has already been photographed on Earth... It's now a matter of "how" rather than "what" you will photograph. But I found out that street photography is always new, it's always telling a new story, with a new angle and new actors. And this is what I love about it!

 

Oh well, sorry for the long post! Happy to be there anyway, and looking forward to seeing your work!

 

Cheers,

 

Konzy

About Macro:  The Fuji extension tubes are 100% automatic and with no glass they don't weigh much = easy to carry. The 18-135 is excellent for handheld close-up of small stuff.
