![]() It is easy to pack up beside a film point and shoot for a small trip. I want photography to be enjoyable, or why the shit else would I do it? It feels fun, and quite honestly my dSLRs no longer ‘feel fun’ like they did when I was 20 years old. ![]() Nobody seems to care about my ‘little vintage camera’. The camera is quiet and discreet, affording me less attention while I point it around. It gets out of the way when I jump on my bike to head around town, or go hangout at a park with friends, or I want to clear my head from work and go photograph whatever my neighbourhood is up to (see below). This fucking camera excels in all the other ways: That seems like sharp negatives for an xPRO3 review, but it isn’t. Yes, I know that lots of adventurous photographers do the same thing with Fujis. The weight difference and packing size is negligible for that security. My dSLRs come with me when we plan a trip to hike the mountains in Wales, or in the bush of Newfoundland and I need to know that if I drop the camera it will survive, or that two batteries could last me three days. Frankly, it is a long story and I won’t bother you, but the punchline is that I actually still use dSLRs quite a lot, but pretty much never for any day-to-day, pick up the camera and run out the door with friends situations. I first wrote out this section with a backstory into how I fell into photography.
