Hello!
I didn't notice this part of the forum before my first post so here I am. I'm 33, I'm french and I started taking pictures with my father's Yashica SLR and then in the beginning of the digital photography with a HP compact (huge with a tiny screen, one focal length and no memory card

), a Sony P100 and then I became more concerned about the quality of my pictures when I bought the exotic R1. Now my equipment is an Alpha700 with few lenses (CZ16-80, sony 50mm1.4, sony 70-300G and Tamron 90mm2.8
I'm here to discuss, to learn and also to share some pictures.
A bientôt!

Welcome to the forum!
Back in the early 1970s when I first started thinking about getting an SLR I almost got a Yashica because a buddy had one. I ended up getting the Mamiya/Sekor 1000 DTL.
The A700 is a wonderful camera. I got mine over a year ago and out of the 5 DSLRs I have owned it is the best.
Feel free to post some of your photos!

Welcome Ghor - I look forward to seeing some pictures of spring in France. What is happening where you are with the Spring colours so far?

Now we know you are in France. That's one step closer to discovering where this 100mm f/2 is before you put the money down!
Welcome!

Thanks a lot for your warm wellcome!
Perhaps the 100 f/2 lens is not french, I live so close to the german and swiss borders....

Welcome Ghor!
You made quite an entrance with that lens of yours...

And hopefully you'll enjoy your stay here.
