Mu-43 Hall of Famer
Yes, I said it. We're all about the gear. Buying it. Selling it. Complaining about it. Comparing it to other gear. Wondering and predicting what new gear will be like. Talking about people who talk about gear. Lusting after gear. And more.
I don't say this to be critical of this site or anyone who participates. I point out the obvious in an effort to minimize the general outcry that inevitably crops up when Nikon's new mirrorless FF gets announced, and or when Olympus's latest seems like something of a dud. There is no need for everyone to lose their fuzzy little minds because threads are blowing up. We are about the gear. So we will talk about it ad infinitum, and often ad nauseum. Just let the fire burn out. Complaining about the gear talk just fans the flames.
Because gear heads will be gear heads. Bless us all.
*** I realize there is quite a bit of photo sharing here, and even some talk about technique. And that some members really are about photography first. That is all good, and I don't want to minimize it, but the gear talk pays the bills, I think.
