24 February

Taken with my now retired D100 and 24-85 combination these are the cameras I reach for when in need.
I still have and use a film camera, a Nikon F80 loaded with Ilford 400 B&W film and my D300s, while I like the D300s I cannot help but miss my old D200, it produced such lovely colours, right in the centre is my new Olympus XZ-2iHS, I am really starting to like this camera, I bought it for traveling and days when I did not want to lug around a SLR. I have been considering selling my Nikon kit and replacing it with one of the new Olympus OM-D range maybe even turning over to Canon. I have never been a gear head but some times another product makes sense.

Nikon D100 ,Nikkor 24-85mm f/2.8-4D AF
1/15s f/2.8 at 24.0mm iso400 full exif

Old gear is worth keeping sometimes, if just for how great they were. Case you wondered, love the Oly OM-D series. Awesome stuff with lenses to match.

Have moved more over to Fuji`s x-series for street and travel.Great cameras with great glass for days when I don`t want to carry all the weight of my Nikon DSLR`s. Agree with you on the D200 colours,lovely. Also have a D700,a workhorse of a cam. Will not sell any of the Nikons,they`ll last for as long as I`ll be shooting! :-)
