[QUOTE="Boompa, post: 596896, member: 43003"] I became interested in photography in 1967 while I was in high school. I saved and saved and bought a Pentax Spotmatic w/ 50mm f1.4 lens and paid part of my way through college doing a variety of photography gigs as I acquired additional glass. Later I switched to Nikon in the 70's but eventually migrated to Canon. My last Canon was a 5D with lots of "L" glass before the mirrorless bug bit. I sold all the Canon gear and went thru first a lot of Fuji gear and of late Olympus gear: 3 bodies and 8 or 9 lenses. But at last I've seen the light and returned to my roots. No, not Pentax: Nikon! I'm keeping all of the Oly gear... for now. But I've quickly added a bunch of Nikon-related gear: D750 AF-S NIKKOR 85mm f/1.8G AF DC-NIKKOR 135mm f/2D AF-S NIKKOR 16-35mm f/4G ED VR AF-S NIKKOR 24-70mm f/2.8G ED AF-S Nikkor 200-500mm f5.6E ED VR Tamron SP 70-200mm f/2.8 Di VC USD I'd forgotten how amazing full-frame can be after living in the small-sensor mirrorless world for the past 6 or 7 years. It's good to be "home" to Nikon after 40 years! [/QUOTE]
