I got it to see what Fuji cameras are like, especially as the X-T10 can be had for under \u00a3200. I\u2019ve been really impressed with it, even though it\u2019s an older camera and \u2018only\u2019 16MP. Lovely little camera to use. I haven\u2019t purchased much gear this year, but out of this camera, a Pentax Spotmatic SP1000 and a few other bits and pieces, this little Fuji has been my favourite purchase.<\/p>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"144493 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/other.kelsey.host\/amateurphotographer\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/16-Skelton-Canon-EOS-R-006-400x400.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"400\" height=\"400\" \/>\n<p><strong>Ian Skelton<\/strong><br \/>\nA Canon EOS R with 24-105mm L from Wex.

It\u2019s my Rollei 35B. I had to get two, I love them that much.<\/p>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"144495 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/other.kelsey.host\/amateurphotographer\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/22-Nikon-Z6_24-70-471x400.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"471\" height=\"400\" \/>\n<p><strong>Reece Hudson<\/strong><br \/>\nI shoot more film than I do digital, using a Nikon F and F3.
