From SLR to DSLR photography.
I used to be a dab hand with SLR cameras back in the 1970's! Now that I am retired, I have the time to do more walking and photography. I gave away my SLR kit to a budding young photographer that I used to know as I never had the time to use it. What recommendations do you "digital" folks have for an oldie to get back into the photography scene. I will probably buy used kit as it may just be a fad at this stage. I used to have a selection of lenses and would like to get to something similar but for use with a digital camera. Thanks in advance.

I understand that, but to someone that has no real knowledge of cameras it’s a completely misleading and inappropriate analogy (hence my annoyance). Current mirrorless cameras are increasingly pushing the boundaries as functional tools and in many ways are more useable than DSLRs.
