Bought my first real camera and joined

2 months 6 days ago #750568 by Opto Fox
I'm so pumped to own my first real camera.  I'm 22 years old and bought a used Nikon Z6.  It's only a body only, so technically I've not even shot it yet, but I'm looking to buy my first lens for it.  Which was my first question I posted on this site.  My hobbies are playing golf, water sports and now looking to add photography.  I'm from Dallas, or rather I live in Dallas, I'm originally from Michigan.   

My name is Opto if you care to know my name.  Not sure what I can contribute here, but sure looking to learn from you all.  Thank you.
