[QUOTE="Clovishound, post: 780678, member: 50197"] I started with an Argus C4 hand me down. Moved on to a Practica and then Pentax film cameras. I moved to Minolta when the autofocus shift started, and ended up with my dad's Rollei 3.5F when he passed. Fell out of the hobby in the 90s. Wife got my daughter and I a refurbed Canon Rebel in 2007. Daughter used it mostly, but I tried my hand at it, and liked it. When my daughter got the bug, an wanted something more up to date, the Nikons were a lot more bang for the buck in entry level DSLRs at the time, so I went with a D3400 2 lens kit I picked up on sale for $500. It was heads and shoulders above the Canon in image quality. Of course, that was mainly due to improvements in the technology across the board. When I started to get interested in photography again, I just bought her a new D5600 and I took her D3400. After a few months, I decided to treat myself to a new Z5. After getting on board with Nikon with the D3400, it seemed reasonable to stick with one manufacturer. [/QUOTE]
