[QUOTE="Marcel, post: 18035, member: 3903"] I started with a Kodak twin lens with 620 roll film. Got my first ansco film developing outfit. Then I bought a nikormat and then a Yashica mat 124 (120 roll film). I started helping out the local wedding photographer so that became my summer job for a few years. Hasselblad 500 cm, leica m3, studied in a college in Montreal for 2 years, got myself an assistant job in a studio in Montreal. Did advertising, a little fashion, mostly studio work. So it was 4x5, 5x7 and I even shot 8x10 transparencies in those years. I exchanged the Hasselblad for a Pentax 6x7, and got a Canon F1 for the Montreal Olympics in 1976 (had the official suit and pass for all events as a photographer). Then I switched careers and forgot photography for about 20 years. Got myself a Canon Powershot 100 (elf) in 2000 for a study trip I did in Japan, then in 2008 another Canon S5 in 2007 for a cycling trip I did in Italy and that's what got me hooked back into digital photography. I then bought a Canon Rebel that I gave my daughter, got a Nikon D80, sold it to a friend, got a D90, D7000 and just a month ago a D700. Everytime I get a new camera, I think this might be the last one... Anyway, I really love the D7000 and D700. I've kept the D90 for probably sentimental reasons (+ I'd loose too much if I sold it) [/QUOTE]
