    It’s been a while…

    Hi folks. It’s been a while since my last post but, having just bought a new camera, I thought I’d say hello! I bought a Nikon Zfc on a whim last weekend. I saw it in a camera store in Beverley and, having got it in my hands, it so reminded me of the FM I bought in 1979 that I had to buy it...

    Fuji x100

    I was fortunate to get a place on the X100F Touch and Try day in Leeds yesterday. Had a good wander around Leeds centre with the camera and really liked it. Think I may pre-order while the free case offer is still going.
