Title: Hi!
Post by: MichelBraunstein on December 02, 2017, 08:44:07

Hello Nikon fans!
My name is Michel Braunstein, using Nikon from the eighties, as underwater photographer, with the Nikonos V cam/lenses and strobes.
I'm shooting wherever I can, but most specialized UW.
Like everyone I had no other choice than going digital, I begun with D70 then D200 and I'm now using D300 for 10 years already.
Looking forward to buy the D850 now, but it's not easy to find availability.
I just found nikongear.net in an article posted bu NikonRumors and I subscribed.
Some of my works may be seen on my website here: http://michelbraunstein.com/

Hi !
I am an exclusive AW* shooter, Df hugger, and entrenched manual focusser.

Diversity is the motto here :)

*AW : above water

Very interesting and different. I am not into water so much. I love living by the water but in a safe distance from it. Diving? Not my thing. Watching your photos? Very much my thing. Thank you for sharing!

& welcome!

Hello Michel, welcome to NG... :-) I have fond memories of the Nikonos V that I used as an everyday terrestrial "all weather" camera (with a "surface" 28mm lens) ! Nowadays, the Df is my workhorse.

Bienvenue à bord, Michel. It is always nice to welcome another Belgian. Slowly increasing the count :)
