That pocket Canon was really pretty awesome, within its range of capabilities, as are most phones nowadays!

I'm just hoping that having spent decades with Nikon film systems, Nikkormat FTN, Nikon F3/T, FE & FM, in the long ago, that this new (to me) Digital Camera will somehow seem sort of familiar, at least enough so that I can get some photography done to my satisfaction?!?!

The new iterations of Digital SLRs are going mirrorless, and that trend seems to be the direction they are all now heading. That being the case, I suspect that the long-standing Nikon F-mount for lenses is going the way of the dinosaurs really soon, so it was sort of a case of jump in now or lose the chance to use my old lenses (old friends), or so it seemed.

Hey, I am a RETRO kind of guy after all, don't ya know!!!
