This is Photography

Cosmetically, it doesn't look like it's in good shape. No idea if it works, or how well. It's one of the cameras I found when cleaning out my grandparent's things.

Lens says Rokkor-X 1:1.4 f=50mm.

Along with that camera there is also have a Yashica U-Matic and some Polaroid thing. I'm guessing they're all 60s vintage.

Depending on the glass you have for it, some of that old Rokkor stuff is fantastic for the what its value is now and can be adapted to shoot on some modern systems. You can likely get a a fair price for it from a photography student. 50 to 80 bucks for the body alone if its in really good shape.

Is a Minolta XG7 worth anything? I've got one sitting here, and I have no need for it.

Any Magic Lantern fans here? I'm really loving the focus peeking when shooting untethered.

Now ruin that by buying a huge dong of a 24-70MM

I had no reason not to switch. Since I wanted to go full frame I would have had to buy new lenses either way. I love how this A7 is smaller and lighter than my D3100 was.

Well given Nikon and Olympus have been buying sony sensors for a while now they have the tech. They are a real contender now a days for sure..... I have considered it but have too much in what I have....

Finally upgraded from my D3100...

Dude this is awesome. Sony definitely is tempting but I cant see myself spending the money to switch. Youll have to keep us updated on your thoughts.

Candid shots of people has really reignited my drive to go out and take pictures every day I can.

You must be pixel peeping something major, I dont see anything of the sort in your posted images.

I just noticed it when looking at the full res of the ladies black coat, its not bad in small screen digital format for sure. But If I wanted to blow anything up it would annoy me.

Either way, I'm definitely making the full frame leap this summer, and I'm definitely leaning Sony after seeing how mediocre the 6D/6DMK2 is.
