Hello from Blighty

[Zuikopath]

I just thought I should say hello and introduce myself.

As you can probably see from my username, I'm a fan of all things Zuiko - I use OM SLRs and have a growing collection of rangefinders.

I've been shooting since I was 11 years old (some time ago!) and really enjoy the beauty of film.

I'm UK based and enjoy picking up and sharing tips with other users from around the World.

I'm sure there is plenty to learn here.

Cheers

Welcome to APUG. I like rangefinders myself, but they are medium format rangefinders.

Welcome!

 

[Zuikopath]

Thanks for the kind comments.

Perkeleellinen I see you're in Oxon - I'm probably not a million miles from you...!

This website is a mine of info - I could have been on here non-stop for the last 36 hours and still not seen a fraction of it...

 

[perkeleellinen]

Whereabouts are you?

 

[Zuikopath]

Whereabouts are you?

You have a PM

Hiya Zuikopath. I used to use OM cameras and lenses. Good stuff. BTW, welcome from the NW of England!

 

[Zuikopath]

Hey Blighty - I guess I didn't think there would be a user with that name when I titled my thread...!

I have an OM1n, OM2, 2X OM2n and an OM10, a collection of lenses for them all and now I've got into rangefinders...I think I need a cabinet

Thanks to you all...!

I'm glad I found this forum - I've learned loads already

I just want to explain to our none British members " Blighty" is a slang term for the U.K that came from a Hindustani word imported into English by Victorian soldiers who serves in India, like a lot of British Army Slang to this day.

Hiya Zuikopath....you have great taste in cameras [I enjoy the odd bit of Tripping myself]

 

[Zuikopath]

Thanks...!

I was wondering, having had a good look around here - shouldn't there be a separate forum for half-frame cameras and related discussions in the Equipment section...?
