I originally became interested in photography in the mid eighties when I bought a Practica MTL-5, which incidently I still have, although it is broken.

From 1987 onwards the interest waned until 2005 when I bought the Fujifilm Finepix S7000. (Pictured).

I currently use the Canon EOS 40D (Below) as my preferred camera, with the Canon EOS 20D as backup. I do still use the Fujifilm Finepix S7000 for areas where a digital SLR is difficult to manage & it is great for macro's.

Current lenses include the Sigma 50-500 EX DG HSM.

Sigma 18-200 DG OS 

Sigma 120-300 f2.8 EX DG HSM.

I also have the Sigma 1.4x EX DG Teleconverter.

The only Canon lens at the moment is the standard 17-55 EF-S which came with the 20D.
