I took my first photos with a brown plastic square Kodak Brownie camera. In the mid 70's, when I was in high school, I started spending all my money on camera equipment, have a nice selection of Canon FD equipment. When Canon changed their mount and then digital came in, I was shooting less and less film, more with my twin lens Rolleiflex then the 35mm. My move into the digital was a Panasonic 12X with a Leica, it soon became the only camera I was using. Life had changed, and I didn't have time for anything but quick snapshots, etc. I was not following my art. That is changing now that I have discovered I can use my old FD glass with the full frame Sony, so I'm ordering an a7II this week and I'm excited about shooting again. Also excited about getting a Zeiss lens, love my Rollei. I love night shots, scenic, people, nature, technical shots. I have a set of studio strobes. In film I have cameras from a minolta 16mm spy camera up to a 4X5 Graflex along with enlargers for all of them.

Welcome to UHH. Mostly Nikon here, with Hasselblad and Graphic 4x5 thrown in. The rest of the family consists of various 120 and 35mm cameras.
