I started photography when I was about 5 years old and it has always fascinated me. There's a magic to capturing images, the art expressions, the feelings only an image can express.
My first Nikon I saved up for was the Nikkormat FTN in1973 and continued developing and printing B&W. My only lens was the 50/2 for many years until I graduated Uni and working in Indonesia. I have loved Nikon as it feels a photographer's camera. Then when digital arrived Canon was well advanced and stayed with many iterations until 2010 when Leica introduced the M9, M240 and loved art of the process of capturing images. The a foray with Sony, Fiji and now Nikon. Why Nikon because it feels like photographer's camera. Sure look at the specs, MTF charts, but you have to be passionate about the feel and process. If not you may as well use your smartphone
