SONY CAMERAS
The Sony NEX-7 was special for me as it was my first mirrorless camera. I made some fantastic images with the NEX-7, and more importantly, it convinced me to rethink my DSLR needs. After reading reviews on the Fujifilm X-Pro2, I decided to rent one and immediately fell in love with the rangefinder-style and aperture ringed lenses. After acquiring an X-Pro2, I donated the NEX-7 to a local arts agency, wanting to pass on the NEX-7 love. Sony cameras have come a long way since the NEX-7, and like the Nikon F3, they will forever be endearing to my heart, but during my mirrorless journey, I found my preference for the Fujifilm APS-C mirrorless system.
