Hello from Helsinki
« on: January 10, 2016, 23:00:19 »
Some might remember me, I posted as percafluvialitis on the previous generation NikonGear forums.

Anyway, I'm a family man in my fourties, live in Helsinki/Finland, employed as a full-time photographer (mostly in Finland but in the past 10 years increasingly around the World). I own a studio in Helsinki and am partner in a camera rental service, which has an inventory of around 100 different lenses for Nikon full-frame DSLR (ranging from fisheyes to the 800mm FL VR).

Br,

Vilhelm

Welcome in either fish or human cloak, Vilhelm.

I'm sure that inventory of Nikkors and their associated stories can contribute a lot to our Lens Talk board !!

Hello Bjørn, I am happy to today have discovered this forum and great to see the core crew is familiar from years ago :)

Weather forecast for Helsinki this week is -10 to -15C, heavy snowfall and wind speed of 12-14m/s so yes the next few days there should be plenty of time to navigate the lens talk sections after 9pm Helsinki time - I have spent far less time online after our daughter was born 3 years ago 8)

Looking forward to whatever contribution you make ....

Helsinki weather sounds similar to what we have here in Oslo, by the way.

Welcome again ;) Indeed it looks like you should be able to pitch in a lot with valuable info on shooting and gear! ;) But do enjoy the little new one first!
