Jim Handsfield Posted April 5, 2018 Share #1 Posted April 5, 2018 Advertisement (gone after registration) Greetings, everyone. I've just joined this forum and I'm looking forward to using it. I'm new to Leica, having in the past used primarily Nikon and Minolta (long time ago). I'm retired and a widower - my wife died almost two years ago from ALS, and since I no longer had the caregiving duties, I've rejoined serious photography in a big way. I live in Atlanta, GA, USA.

abrewer Posted April 6, 2018 Share #4 Posted April 6, 2018 Welcome, Jim. It's fabulous to see another American on the Forum. I look forward to seeing your photos on the site. Photography is a great hobby, one that has given many, many of us much-needed distraction from our problems. When I came here circa 2002 I knew nothing about Leica either, but luckily this forum is remarkably patient and helpful. Welcome, have a good time, and enjoy!

Jake Posted April 7, 2018 Share #7 Posted April 7, 2018 Advertisement (gone after registration) Yeah. I joined a month or so ago. First time leica user/ owner. Wanted one for a long, long time. Finally bought a CL. Longtime Olympus user, but i'll use anything. Canon, Nikon, iphones. I'm a shutter whore, but can be quite selective in my equipment selection. I'm very curious about the leica community, as it is clearly a separate group among photographers simply based on the price point and mystique.
