Hello from Buckingham UK

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!

You may wish to consider the FX 55-200 to give a little more reach to your arsenal!

 

A modest but very good lens!
