    Greetings from Ohio

    Hello everyone. Here is some information about my photography.

    From 1973 until the introduction of the Canon 5DS, I was a Nikon user. After recent QC issues with the D750 (5 recalls), D810 (2 service bulletins affecting my cameras), Df failed sensor with only 1200 shots, and the infamous D600, I made the switch to Canon. There was a learning curve in regard to lens choices but the controls and menus were natural for me and the ergonomics were painless to adopt. Color rendition was more to my liking in ooc jpegs, particularly skin tones and nature shots.

    During the transition from Nikon to Canon I made a detour into Sony - A99, A7r and A7II. Sadly for a number of reasons, that was a mistake for me as I never felt comfortable with the controls, menus, battery life, lens choices and focus performance.

    Being a Canon zealot, I prefer Canon lenses although I tried Sigma, Tokina and Tamron. Now the only non-Canon lens is the 16-300mm Tamron that my wife uses on her 7DII, which she likes for the reach and light weight. It is not the sharpest lens but performs acceptably for snapshots.

    Most of our work is highly processed using Photoshop CC, Lightroom, NIK and a variety of Topaz tools. Our website is at www.jamesdane.com

      Tom,

      You live near the communities where my ancestors settled in the 1700s.
