I have reasons too. I am 61 and I want one. If I am not going to allow myself a little fun now, then when ?

Were it that this site were not going down on April 10th, I wouldn't mention this, but as it is, I will let out a bit more.

I am super happy with my R6 mk2. I look at the price and I think, "that's what it cost". There was just something about this camera, I knew it would be essential, almost, to my becoming the person that I want to be. Not my core "inner self", but the outside part that people see. But even so, the outside part touches the inside part, somewhere.

Oddly, I look at the photo below, from Saturday, and I am sure that I made the right decision. The photo is very personal, for me personally, because it represents my release from the clutches of winter 2022/2023.

Over in the headphone forum I see that Sennheiser has released a HD660S2. Based on everything that I have read in the big thread in the headphone forum, I would like the S2 better than I like my HD660S. And I like my HD660S headphones, a lot. But I can survive without them, the S2. Maybe I will get the S2 in May 2024. But either way, it's not a big issue. The current price is around 600 Dollars.

The R6 mk2 was something different. And the photo below tells me I made the right decision.

Normally I would just delete a comment like this before posting it. Close the browser window before pushing the "Post" button. Too many things in it where people would be able to attack me as being a nutcase. But the site is going away, so what the heck.
