Enjoying photography - film and digital

Hi,
I am visiting photrio for quite some time now and loving it . I think time to finally register as well .
I just love photography! Probably because I have grown up in an environment of photographers : Grandparents, parents, sisters, brothers, friends.....all have been or are active photographers. I started quite early, and my parents have taught me a lot. Some years ago a very good friend of mine and semi-professional photographer also introduced me to film - and I've fallen in love with it! Film is meanwhile supplementing my digital photography, and my film use is slowly but steadily increasing from year to year.
Currently I am mainly using a Nikon F100, Nikon FA and Mamiya 645 Pro TL. Recently also added a Sprocket Rocket and have fun with it. In digital imaging a Nikon D300s has been and still is my main trusty workhorse.
I hope to contribute here with my hopefully increasing knowledge soon.

Hey, great to have you here! I have a Sprocket Rocket that I received as a gift. I’ve only used it a couple times but always enjoyed the output. In fact, I’ll get it out soon. Thanks for that reminder.

Hope to see your thoughts and images here.

Welcome to Photrio!

Welcome. I think it's the best photography forum around, and in general, it's a good place to hang out and meet some very knowledgeable and positive people.

Thank you all!!

welcome to the party!

Welcome! I have to admit I had to look up what a Sprocket Rocket is now I know!

I use one too, along with my F2, FG and F90x shooting Ektachrome and various B&W films.

The D300s is currently one of the best bargains on the used DSLR market.
It's a truly professional camera, and it can be bought for about only 200-300 bucks on the used market.
Completely underrated!
Same for the F90X and F100, which can be bought even much cheaper, especially the F90X.
