Very good article but something i believe only recently has been available to make. Example: I had the 7D. Great camera but that sensor was unforgiving when it came to ISO performance. You really needed to get aggressive with it. Much more than say the 5dmkII at the time

The fuji has an excellent sensor so you can begin to make these comparisons. But as always it comes down to getting what works best for you :)

For sure the grass roots was there. Charly Wegelius (in his book Domestique: The True Life Ups and Downs of a Tour Pro) said he ended up having a bad relationship with british cycling because they focused more on track than road when it first started up! I believe it was a great platform for british cycling. Before you needed to go over to france in order to have a chance at becoming pro. British cycling started to really take off in the late 90's (due to National Lottery funding) which has really changed that system up!

As much as people mock the National Lottery, their funding has certainly helped out. But government funding for sports in general is just ****ing dire. We would rather pump money into benefits (aka welfare over here), than take a few pennies out and throw it into sports...

Having the Olympics and currently the last few days of the Commonwealth Games in Glasgow has really fueled the athletic and sporting ways in the UK

Not being political at all about this, but this is all about right photo, wrong time, and who gives a crap about the camera!
