Lovely
Sharing our hobby and passion with our partners is a great thing.
Also makes trips to the camera store more enjoyable. Even if you have to share the financial resources.
I've been encouraging me wife to make our D5100 'her camera' and she is slowly getting into it. Still prefers "auto-everything" but I'm patient. She prefers the size and weight of the smaller camera, her favourite lens is the DX 35mm - it is small and simple. She is a KISS kinda person.
Been thinking of upgrading to a D7100 so she can make use of all our non motorized lenses. But afraid the increased sized of the camera will put her off.
