Only buy a camera you can imagine shooting with forever

Super enjoying the RICOH GR III; which gave me a thought:

Perhaps we should only ever purchase a camera which we can imagine using forever?

Of course nothing is meant to last forever. And of course digital photography is moving so quickly, that to never buy another digital camera ever again is also a foolish idea. If I plan on shooting photos until I’m 120 years old, I want new technologies in photography to be created!

But as photographers and creators, we need to love the cameras and tools we use. Keep experimenting with your equipment until you find a few tools you love, then stick with them! If you just feel “meh” about the tools or belongings you have, ditch them.
