How you become a photographer?

My ex-brother-in-law always took pictures and asked if I would come along for fun.
That was about twelve years ago.
I thought it was fun and interesting and when I went to get a camera and we went out a lot together.
Sometimes we meet in the national park and sometimes we go out together, he was like a brother to me.

Hi ! When I started my job (2011) , my coworkers told me about Reflex photo. I remember, i said : "I will never pay more than 100€ for a camera ... you're crazy !" - So, they showed me photos tooks with a good camera. 1 wekk later I bought a reflex camera lol.

And way you chosen Olympus brand from anothers Ron Westbroek ?

Itself I say that the brand chosen me
Accidentally.
Although I had my first film camera Olympus as a children but I used it more like a toy as a camera and it was fastly broken
But we had later at home first Digital camera Sony cyber shot at home, and I liked to shoot pictures, especially horses with this small pop camera.. but they was more "shots " as a pictures . But I loved to spend lot of hours with horses on fields shooting pictures of them
But my own first Digital camera I bought 3 years ago and same macro lens. The camera was as second hand camera Olympus pen 6, and year ago I bought new from the shop OMD em 10mark III and two new lenses same
I just always have loving photography, almost all kinds of it, although mostly macro- discovering new small world and horses sill, although haven't so lot of time today as before for theme . They are so great and beautiful , great models

I started with Olympus the E30 then the E510.
Then came the OMD series and I thought it was too small, so I switched to the Nikon D7000, but also the lenses $$$$$$$ money money money then the D610.
I also had the Sigma 120-300 F / 2.8.
Bought four years ago a kit from Olympus the om-d e-m10 mark ii with 14-42mm pancake and the 40-150mm.
I liked that, nice and small and light.
I exchanged everything from what I had from Nikon, another mountain of money.
Now I have everything from Olympus, see forum https://macroderie.com/threads/what-have-you-got.1824/unread

Don't think they are buying a company to pull the plug so they just keep developing and making cameras. ( I hope)
