Amazing what links you can find on a photography forum. Loved it. Called my wife to looky see. She is the flower gardener.

Costco carries an excellent Columbian coffee in the bean. They carry a variety of others, including coffees ground by Starbucks. I won't touch the Starbucks stuff simply because the few times I've been in Starbucks, I've found their coffee to be inferior and overpriced.
I can get the Starbuck taste by making a pot of coffee and leaving it on the burner for a few hours till it loses all resemblance to coffee.

I had been buying the "expensive" stuff for quite awhile...even had been ordering mail order from Costa Rica.
But, about a year ago I ran out and tried the Folgers "Black Silk" We've been buying that ever since.
It's pretty good and less than half the price.
What a surprise!

I love Folgers Black Slk. Great taste and low acid. There are some really good dark coffee from Alaska I used to get some years back but just stick to Black Silk now.

Actually quite the opposite if you study history at all.

Hi, interesting topic. I think a lot of it is when it changes you from taking a picture to seeing the image before you push the button.

I have a friend who had his shoulder replaced and it didn't go well. He was a full frame guy and really particular about his images. He is shooting Fuji and is happy. You might want to see if they have something.

Hi, I am pretty new here but and was in a similar situation not long back. Mirrorless was not in my sights because it was pretty new and I don't mind the weight. I knew wanted a full frame to take me back to film days. I went with Canon after renting both both Canon and Nikon. Got the 5Dmk4 with a battery pack and the 24-105L. Got a couple L primes and L zooms (raided the 401k).
All that to say try renting a couple systems to find what works for you. Doesn't cost an arm and a leg and you can get your hands on feel. The new mirrorless cameras are supposed to be coming out to match the high end DSLR's this fall/winter. A lot to think about but no matter your choice enjoy.

Hi, New here. Have been visiting for a while just not posting. This seems like a nice place without the conflict of some sites. Birds are one of my favorite model, you got to be quick though. I like to sit with a cup of coffee and capture my little friends coming into the feeders. This was the other day as a storm was brewing and the wind was gusting pretty hard. The crop on the third on was not as I would have liked. There was so out of focus branches kind of close to me and it was pretty ugly. My thinking is better to have the image than not. F8 and be there logic. Won't win any competitions but I will have it to enjoy.
Had to crop out some nasty close branches
