I've been a Nikon guy since my first purchase at the Guam exchange in 1970. I currently have 3 nikon bodies and 14 lenses. I got a great deal on a used Fuji xt3 but I can't justify buying all the fuji lenses so I got an adapter to use my nikon lenses on the fuji. Very happy with the results. I like the mirrorless features, but for BIF can't beat the DSLR and especially the D500!


I agree concerning the D500 and BIFs!!!
I was about three years behind you to Guam. I went back to Guam from three years in the Philippines and had a collection of Pentax camera gear shipped to Guam. It was stolen enroute and I replaced everything with a Mamiya 645 medium format system bought from the Guam exchange. Still have it plus another 645 body and a few lenses. It's great gear, but full frame digital Nikons are the stars now!!

Yep, I did time at Subic bay too. When I finished active duty in 72 I got in to medium format with Bronica SQA's and a fuji GA 645, the first medium format to have auto focus.
