Hello everyone , New to the forum
Male , 52 , I have a bad back ( back lost the plot about 5 years ago ) , so currently not working but looking .
Went back to school a few years ago , so have a double diploma in IT now ..
About two years ago decided to learn or teach myself Macro Photography , having done some 35mm 20 years earlier ( there about's ) .
Mostly did nature / landscape photography back then ( I could afford Petrol and Film processing )
What I like most about digital , I can do several hundred shutter actuations and it costs me didly .
I just wish the equipment cost as much as image processing .
Currently own :
Pentax istD ( gripped )
Pentax K10D
Pentax K20D
Pentax K30D
Pentax K50D
Pentax K5
Nikon D7000
Canon 40D
Owned ( Sold ) or gave away
Pentax istD
Pentax istDS
Pentax K100D
Pentax K200D
Pentax Kx
Pentax K7
Canon 30D
Nikon D3200
And I think that's in the last , almost 3 years .
I wont bother going into the lenses , there are a few .
Mostly played with Pentax due to the legacy lenses , but right now I am in a transitional situation and have to decide on Canon or Nikon .
Unfortunately both Canon and Nikon offer more options ( much needed options ) , so 2016 will probably see me sell most of the Pentax gear , in favour of Canon or Nikon ..
ATM I am pushing the gear I own pretty much to the limit , so might be time to take it to the next level .
Aaaah ! But that money thing .
