Pondering selling all my gear and consolidating

<< < (2/3) > >>

bear:
Optical zoom in a compact is real not multi lens as on a phone (My ixus have 5x).

Clock'd 0Ne:
I would say keep some of the more niche, esoteric photography equipment for sure, in case you find time to come back to it in future.

zpyder:
To be honest it was hard putting the first thing up for sale, but after that it's been a lot easier to just be "sod it, it's going" and now I've got all the big things listed it's actually a bit of a relief, as whenever I opened the cupboard with the kit there gathering dust I felt bad.

Fact is, for the most part, I *can* get images I'm happy with, just using my phone, see the attached! These were from earlier this week.

those are fantastic photos, you have a real skill there :-)

zpyder:
Last of the kit sold today (macro rail).

Bought and have been using a Fujifilm X-T4 with a few different lenses.

The retro styling and control system, combined with film simulations, has kind of reinvigorated my photo mojo. Was quite a burden lifted when I got rid of my kit as I felt it was like a fresh start.

I was also horrified at how the world hacks moved on from SLR systems to mirrorless...last time I was gear hunting they still felt a bit gimmicky!
