Then I got this about three weeks ago:

 

[lukewalnuts]

[WillStart]

ok well apparently this a camera progression thread.

first camera, Samsung Sports Camcorder. got this bad boy in 8th grade:

upgraded to Sony VX2100 in 9th grade:

that started breaking so i got a Panasonic HVX200A in 11th grade:

added a GoPro to my quiver in winter of 12th grade:

bought a Canon T2i at the end of 12th grade:

recently sold my HVX and I'm planning on selling my VX2100 soon in order to buy this guy, Sony NEX-FS100:

 

[TWoods]

My first camera was my Father's Olympus OM1

I started shooting film somewhere in my sophomore year of highschool.

As a Junior, my art teacher had a Nikon D70 that he let me use whenever and wherever I wanted, but still shot mostly film, processed in my school's darkroom.

The summer before I went to College I bought a D50

quickly outgrew that, but I didn't have money for a new camera until for two years, when I bought a D300

I also own 2 nikon film bodies and a Yaschica A:

next camera will be the D700 replacement. D800, or whatever they call it.

 

[Lemuel]

Started off with a gopro a year and a half ago

And hopefully adding this soon in a few weeks. Pentax kr

[blatt]

Photo burst, more AF points and only real video reason is weather sealing/build quality.

 

[WillStart]

ah, fair enough.

although i will say, i have shot with my T2i in blizzards and the rain and have never had problems

 

[blatt]

I'm not that risky haha

[ChucklesNorman.]

That was my first camera too! I upgraded to my HV30 which I'm still using but I want a t2i or 60D.

 

[WillStart]

that camera was so dope, i still have mine

 

[Shredability]

 

[Bentley@DOSMedia]

Ohh wow. My first camera was some old point and shoot that shot some terrible SD quality video.

Then I got myself a GL2...

Then a little over a year later I sold that guy and got myself a Sony V1U...

And once again a year later I made enough money to cover the difference to afford myself an HVX...

I kept the HVX for a while and then bought a T2i to go along with it...

And just a month ago I bought myself my favorite camera to date... My FS100!

After almost 4 years with my HVX, I sadly had to sell it in order to have some cash to pay rent and live. I will miss my HVX. It had a good life with me, but I am so excited for my FS100 that I do not think I would use it anymore. Still have the t2i though. Mainly for time lapses.
