Nikkormat in 1969. (mine was branded Nikkormat, not Nikomat)

 '74 to '84 various brands. (my happy 'budget' years) FM2 in 1984. (gift from my wife, still have it)

Boatload of digitals in the 00s, Teens, 2020s.

Went through Nikon D70, D200, D700, D7200 (all gone)

Z6II in 2022 (traded up to Z8) Z8 in 2023. -along the way: Pentax, Canon, Toshiba, Fuji X and GF, Kodak, Rolleiflex TLR, Bronica, Contax... film, digital, I like both.

I still screw up focus and exposure to this day, but I have a lot of fun doing it!
