… so after a few years of not doing very much in the way of personal photography, I slowly found my way back to going out and shooting again. This was mostly done on my Canon 350D and eventually I decided I wanted to take a step up in quality and feature set from an APS-C camera. I watched and read as much as I could and finally settled on the Canon 5D Mk III. This was around 2013, a year after the camera was launched. I loved the camera - the full frame sensor made everything look great, and the user configurability was a game changer. I took lots of pictures with the 5D over a few years but in time I fell out of the habit of taking photographs for fun and mainly used it for holidays, birthdays and celebrations.
That pretty much brings my camera history up to the present day. Since the start of the year I have been out and about again with the 5D Mk III and have really been enjoying using it. I’ve been doing some street photography locally, used it a fair amount on a couple of foreign trips this year, and have been loving getting back into photography. I’ve also been looking for local sporting events and have been trying my hand at sports photography. I’m gradually getting used to all the settings and features of the camera and have been having fun.
