Camera Equipment

In response to questions about camera equipment used, I must confess that I do enjoy the technical aspects of camera equipment. For many years I was an avid Nikon fan, having owned and used all the Nikons in the Nikon F range, from the early Nikon F to the still  available F6. I've managed to keep them all in my vintage camera collection. Currently the Nikon D800 and Nikon D500 are my primary cameras with Nikon lenses covering 16mm to 500mm. The telephoto end is covered by the new (budget) 200-500 f5.6. The long, fast Nikon primes are way out of my reach financially! When I travel these days I much prefer smaller mirrorless cameras such as my Fuji X-Pro2 and XE-2 with Fujinon lenses. I have come to shed my brand attachment and also see cameras as tools to capture the image. At the point of setting up this website, several of the images included are captured on slide film (Mostly Fuji Velvia) others on digital cameras from Nikon, Fuji and Sony. If I did not have such a substantial investment in Nikon lenses, accumulated over many, many years, I would have happily lived with Canon equipment.
