I'm a former photojournalist who left the business in 2005 to teach. I was also a photo editor of a 40,000 daily for almost 15 years. I've seen it all. That's a large part of why I left journalism and photography.
I didn't touch a camera for six years after leaving newspapers and recently started to dabble in photography again.
I shoot with a Fuji X100. Just bought it in July 2012. It's my first camera other than my iPhone that I've owned since leaving the photography business.
