Notwithstanding the wonderful Edith Piaf song, I do have a few regrets about my decisions/indecisions RE: photography.
Things I wish I had done more in my early days of photography...visiting more museums and studying great painters.
Camera equipment I bought, and I wish I hadn't. This surprisingly pertains to photo equipment I purchased since a few years back..When young, I didn't have the funds.
The cron 90 asph. The Nikon 24-120 and the Nikon 24/2.8D. Big, Clumsy, or optically not very good. Additionally the Fuji 16, 16-55, 90mm.
Each one shares at least one of these attributes..bulky, heavy, less desirable optically; my opinion only.
As to cameras...The Nikon D750 and the Fuji XH-1. Very recent purchases, which I really didn't and don't need. Want against need. Immature decisions, at my age.
And the best lens I ever used/use..the lux 50 asph. The best camera; The Nikon D700.
Not a big list. I do wish I had used the money traveling somewhere distant; seen some new cultures, broadened my mind, learnt new things about life and our planet.
How about you folks? Regret anything photography related?
