Not a new member, but long inactive

[Javier González]

I registered many years ago, but I have not posted much. I live in north Spain, and I have a long lasting interest in photography from my early years. I am going to retire next year (hopefully) and I am trying to recover old hobbys. I am interest mainly in B&W photography, and have a number of 35mm SLRs, medium format (folders and TLR) and compact cameras (too much actually!). Also a 9x12 plate camera (certotrop with a xenar). I am now thinking in adquiring locally a 6x9 durst enlarger to suplement my 6x6 kaiser to be able to enlarge negatives from a Moskva and a Tourist.

Thank you to all the people who post in this forum and make a lot of information available to us!

When I looked at your gear list, it reminded me of something. One of the things that held me back for a long time in this field was owning too many cameras and stuff. I spent most of my time testing them, making notations on the neg sleeves, etc. I finally got down to 2 cameras and 2 lenses, and it's really helped to make better photos. That might be the only suggestion I have for you when you retire. Sounds like you have everything you need.
