All good here thanks! Keeping busy, I do lurk here sometimes but struggle to find the time to post these days. I moved to the Z system earlier this year(after a short flirtation with the EOS RP) so have been enjoying taking more photos, I have also trained to screen print my photos, so I use a studio in east London to print them, which has proved very rewarding. Spain doesn't sound like a bad ideas post Brexit. I've never been so glad to be a dual nation!

I have a Z7 with 25-70 and FTZ adapter. Enjoying it but mirrorless does have a few small limitations so I pair it with D850. The extra MPs in these cameras gives some benefits but also fills up HDD and/or SDD. Cant see any real advantage of the z mount over F mount. I would really like a Z7 with a F mount and ability to use older AF (screw drive) lenses.

Hi Chris, was only thinking of you yesterday! That's uncanny... That was exactly what I put in my previous post, I guess I am always thinking about or members, past and present.  I remember my lad Christopher flooding the rest room in that coffee shop! He hasn't improved! LOL Glad things are good, also that you are busy. Try to find time to post the occasional photo if you can I always enjoyed your photo's, especially the gargoyles! LOL All the best.

Interesting, I went to the Z6 as I'm increasingly doing some video work too - boy what a learning curve!!! But it has proven itself over time. I must say the Z glass I've used has been phenomenal, but it's an expensive game. I must admit I went full on into mirrorless and got rid of my D600, I just stopped picking it up as I enjoy shooting with the Z6 so much more - though it took a lot of time tweaking the settings to make it do what I actually wanted it to. I've sold most of my AF-D glass, kept the AF-S but want to upgrade some of that to S lenses.

Haha, do I need to be worried, Robert? Haha yeah I remember that too, you must tell me if you're ever back around this area, would be good to meet up again - even if it is 10 years later! I'll try and get some posted, my instagram remains the main place I post stuff to publicly but I'll see if I can get a few up, I was in Austria last week for the weekend and got some lovely photos of the vines in the mountains around my family's home. Haven't had time to process those yet (funnily for me processing these days usually means dropping the quality to D1 levels so I can get my positives printed ready for screen printing, but I'll try and get some real ones done). No gargoyles for a while I'm afraid, haven't been able to spend much time in France recently, which is where I think most reside

I don't know Chris, it's uncanny sometimes. Probably pure coincidence. I was in Richmond again last December when I collected my D800. Want to get to Helmingham when I can find time. If you think working life is time consuming, you don't want to try retirement! The screen printing sounds interesting. We do have some gargoyles in a nearby town, on a castle. I keep meaning to photograph them, they are a bit high up but the 300 should get them.

Hi Chris - another Chris here! You obviously left before I arrived - although I am a Nikon user I am not a professional by any means, not sure I even qualify as an amateur! My role here is more on the forum coding - I am responsible for many of the features here now and am part of the original software development team (all 2 of us!) Anyway, welcome back, the more, the merrier!

Chris has just done another improvement, when we reply to a post, the post we are replying to is now in view below the posting window which can be very helpful when replying to technical questions. Thanks Chris (bet). Chris Hamer has been with us for years, from school/college university.
