Hi, new here

Hi all, new here. Had a 400D back in 2007 and loved getting out and about taking photos. Started out again last year with a Nikon D3500, just picked up a Canon 5D Classic. Looking forward to seeing people’s shots and sharing some of my own. I mainly photograph random objects and cars/motorcycles etc oh and I’m from Southampton

Hi Craig, welcome to the forum, enjoy

Welcome Craig. It sounds like you fell into a similar trap to me when I regained interest in photography, I bought a new Nikon outfit and then an older Canon camera came into my hands, so I had to decide which I preferred - you can't afford to buy lenses for both! I went the Nikon route with no regrets, although I later also got entrenched in Olympus as well, and then went back to my Pentax roots too! It's easy to acquire GAS (Gear Acquisition Syndrome) with this hobby!

The D3500 is no longer with me so the decision was made for me I will see how I get on with the 5D, I’m sure it’s a better camera than I am a photographer but it’s the taking part that counts I have the same syndrome with my other hobby….HiFi. I will probably be the same with this hobby
