The last camera I'll ever buy!!

Well, not really ;-)

Over the last two weeks I bought this Voigtländer Bessa R2A and sold my Nikon D70s. Photos to come!

Make every shot count. I think you'll miss your DSLR however.

@Suhyun: What Shane said :-)

@Shane Goguen: No, I haven't. I've been comfortable with 50mm for a while now. I'll try and experiment with wider lenses at some later point.

@Rocket-Sputter: I really don't think I will, but I'll let you know :-) It was a good camera. Just not as well suited to what I wanted to do.

@thespeak: Don't judge a camera by it's user ;-)

I can't think of too many people who would sell their D70s and not be upgrading to a D80, D200, etc. I remember you telling me at the Old Town meetup that you were thinking of selling it. I was surprised to hear it. But who knows you better than you, right? More power to ya! Follow your dreams!

@bsr: I just got it about a month ago. Now it's my primary camera and I'll surely bring it to the next meetup.

Wow. I saw your link in the PDX group that you sold your D70. Very impressive move. I love stories which end with people falling in love with a camera. It's beautiful (especially to f/1.5!), and I hope you're happy together.

Can't say I fell in love with this camera. I hadn't even seen it before I bought it. Something I usually advise others not to do ;-) I did read plenty about it and figured that it would work out well. So far, I'm enjoying it :-)
