My Panasonic Lumix GX80, it is the camera that made me take a deeper interest and develop my skills in photography. I had a Canon EOS 400D as my first decent camera but due to work my interest fizzled out for a few years. Then at another job I got my GX80, and started learning for real, last spring I upgraded to a Lumix S5, and I am considering complementing my camera setup with a Sony A7 IV for it's excellent AF.
My Philips Hue system has been absofuckinglutely amazing, I live alone and being able to turn my lights on before I open my apartment door during winter after work really makes a huge impact on my mwntal health, getting to open my front door into a cozy apartment instead of a black hole is fantastic
I love my Sony Alpha IV, FWIW. Money very well spent.
I love my S5 as well, the colours are just amazing, unfortunately the AF is a bit too slow though when I do planespotting.
I got a bit touchy feely on a A7 IV in a camera shop, and it felt great.
Depending on how the next year works out for me I am very tempted about getting an a7 IV as a complement to my S5.
I said this tooβthe Hue system is game changing as a mood setter. Helps me relax at night by dimming, etc.
