[QUOTE="Paliswe, post: 776025, member: 48977"] My father had an old 6x6 camera that I was allowed to practice on. Eventually we got an Agfa Silette which I used a couple of years. This was back in the early 1960s. Then I bought a Minolta SRT-101 (I think) with a 50mm lens and a Tamron 200mm. Not satisfied with the Tamron I sold it (1972) and bought a Nikkormat + 50mm f/2.8 + 200m f/4 which I still have in my drawer. My mother got angry, wondering why I bought such expensive toys! Twelve years later (1984) I bought a Nikon F-301 with a 35-105 mm f3,5-4,5 and my wife got angry, wondering why I bought such expensive toys! After that I have had D80 (2007), D7000 (?), D7200 (?) and now Z6 (2017) and nobody to complain over my toys! I have had no reason to abandon Nikon, they have always worked for me. [/QUOTE]
