DPRs "Throwback Thursday" A fun read, and oddly spot on for some.

The "Spot on" part is due to the fact that apparently Barney Britton (one of the Authors) and I shared a very similar (near identical) upgrade path of cameras,.

For me this makes the articles even more enjoyable, as I can completely appreciate his sentiment.

Even if you did not own these same cameras,. you might want to give the article a read;

P.S.

These are the cameras i also owned in the order I got them;

I also remember lusting after many of those I never had, the Olympus E10, Canon G3, etc.

Have fun!
