Thanks, JerryC for the good information. I am about to set up a new PC. I have a large desk/table to set things on and that has to be assembled too. Now that we're coming out of lockdown I'm going to get help with the PC and desk set-ups. Geeks to You for the PC, and Air Tasker for the desk.

I bought an AMD-based PC, a Ryzen 9 with 16 cores and 32 threads. 64GB of RAM, 3090 graphics card with 24GB of video RAM on the card, 2 x SSD's, and an open-loop liquid cooling system. All this feeding into a 491/2 inch curved Samsung Odyssey monitor. Along with my developing photography interest, I have a flight simulator and car racing simulator setup. An instrument panel for general aviation flight (Cessna types), and switching panels, add to the setup.

The PC specification is right up there so speed and functionality will not be constrained. Adobe workflow, or others, should be smooth.

I retired this year and I can assure you that GAS is working well. I had intended that my wife and I would share the joy of all this together. Me doing with her watching as Carol has never been on a computer in her life. Unfortunately, my wife of 52 years passed away 5 weeks ago and my motivation has waned a lot. Of course, sadness will pass and new things will steadily begin again. I've been caring for my wife for the past six years in her battle with cancer, and COVID in the end. So I'm very new to photography.

I'm a Nikon D500 owner and I have started a free online photography course. It's part of a veterans support package, along with Mindfulness and Meditation all started this week. Next week it's out and about with the camera taking photos and learning to use the camera.

GAS has given me the technology, and my loss is the motivation to use the tech to fill some of the voids. No doubt UHH is the place for more learning. No there won't be a mirrorless camera to change my life or a Canon for that matter.

Thank you for allowing me to share.

Happy snapping!
