Canons original 5D is now referred to as the classic
But what of the old Fuji/Nikon bodied series of cameras i.e.: Spro1-Spro2-Spro3-Spro5 ?
Is anyone here still using them ?
My first digital camera was the Nikon coolpix 990 and soon after dipping my toe into digital, I realised my Arsenal of Nikon lens were sitting pretty redundant along with my film bodies
So time to look for a Dslr that I could use some of my lovely glass on.
Nikon D1 wow how much errrr I think not
A little bit more searching on the internet came up with Fuji S1pro Dslr a Nikon body and mount with Fuji electronics inside at half the price of the Nikon D1 and at the time pretty impressive images.
As luck would have it a local camera dealer was advertising a S/h one
A quick call and a visit and a deal was done letting my boxed spare Nikon F5 body go paid for the Fuji S pro1 .
And so my journey in digtal moved to Dslr territory &
So as the heading asks Classics or Obsolete ?
