My interest in gear has always been a sort of nerdy sideline of the actual photography. After 20+ years, I get just as much fun out of trying new/different gear as I do actually taking photos. I also personally hate editing photos (its just boring), so getting it as close to perfect in the camera as possible is an important point for me.
