I had my first camera at 18 and had been taking photos on and off and then there was a lull of 20 years or so and when I went back to it about two years ago things had changed to digital so I now use a Nikon D300 with a varation of five lenses which is like a spaceship in comparison to the 35mm film camera I bought in 1973 and which I still have and is in perfect working order, so the learning process started all over again ( well, not quite) so this is where I'm at right now . Happy snapping !!!!!!!!!!
