Re: Gear for travel over the years - very recognizable

Hi Deed (and all participants of this thread).

Great to read your gear and travel story and the photos are a joy to view 👍
I recognize the reducing of slides to the barest minimum so as not to bore family and friends too much

My story is similar although there was a little less gear and travel involved

The first camera I bought was an Exakta VX500, then a Miranda and then a second hand Nikkormat FTN.
Many Nikon cameras after that up to the wonderful F3.
Also Mamiya and Bronica 6x4.5 medium format.

Then came digital with the D70, D200, D300, D700 etc.

I still like to hike and cycle so I can relate to the minimum size and weight part of your story.

Most of the time I now travel with the X-T4 + 18-55mm and 2.8 16mm.
I think Fuji have been quietly working behind the scenes to improve the 18-55mm through firmware and my relatively new copy is excellent.

Cheers and thanks again,

André
