Olivier in France
« on: June 11, 2015, 17:30:52 »
Hello everyone,

I am glad Bez advised about this site.
It looks like despite its name this place is tolerent about camera brands and it is fortunate for me as I just invested in a Fuji X-T1 and am mostly playing with my MF Nikkors. I may invest in dedicated lenses in the future but this may be a very slow process. It is likely that I will sell my D700 with a few AF lenses.
My interest is mostly in B&W portraiture and IR photography, the latter can be entirely ascribed to this site's admin...

We gladly acccept *any* camera here on NG. What matters is the outcome.

What we *do not accept* are brand wars or the inane DSLR vs Mirrorless flaming.

Neither my style nor my interest, so don't worry.
