Hello, Nikonites!
My name is Paul and I am from Russia. I have rather large experience of shooting, coming from film era. I have used Soviet "Zenit" cameras loong time ago.
Next I used some digital "bridge" cameras (Sony, Panasonic, Canon), then Pentax DSLR (K10), did not like it, moved to Olympus 4:3. Then that system was killed by Olympus, and I moved over to Sony because back then it had the most pleasant colors to my taste. Lately, I've tried to move to FF and bought Sony A7II. I was not very happy with it so in order to MAKE myself to stick with it, i've sold all my Sony A77II stuff... That was a mistake as FF was clearly not for me at all. If you want I can elaborate... Anyhow, now I still have A7II with some lenses but my main camera now is Nikon D5500 which I see as an ergonomic miracle. I've bought several lenses for it and now I finally became a happy Nikonian. Why "finally"? Because my father was a Nikonian for last 30 years and always tried to convert me to his "faith".
Anyway, I am glad to be here!
