Hello,
I am Peri. I am getting back into photography after a long time. Started in college (in India) in late 70s with Yashica Electro 35/B&W film. Learned to develop, print contacts and enlargements. Was fun times. Never knew how a shot would turnout until you saw the print emerge in the dark room! Can you imagine that today?
Then life got in the way. Moved to US in early eighties and never had much time or money for photography. Still managed to get a Pentax K1000 and later my first digital camera Panasonic FZ-50. Used them only to record family events.
Now finally getting back in to Photography as a hobby. Ordered Fujifilm XT-1, Fujinon fx 18-135 mm and B+W clear filter.. Will be here next week. Planning to join a photo club near home and learn.

Welcome to the Force...You have entered an addictive land of truths, myths, fantasies, ghosts, goblins and good old fashioned advice (whether you want it or not)...
Seriously though - the folks here have lots of good advice and a couple of days of experience and are willing share what they can - don't hesitate to ask detailed questions, in fact, the more details, the more accurate the answer ;)
A couple of links to help you
navigate the forum and some
resources to hopefully answer your questions or guide you in your quest...
Looking forward to seeing some of your photos.

Welcome to UHH Peri, glad you joined us. Traveled the same route as you did. Dark room was kitchen at night with windows covered. Now just shove card into computer and instant images. Have a great time with your new toys.
Have fun and enjoy the forum.
