She&#8217;s a Nikon Zfc. \u00a0I&#8217;ve spent the last year avoiding taking my current camera, a Nikon D750, anywhere with me. \u00a0It&#8217;s bulky, heavy and a pain in the you-know-what to travel with. What good is a nice camera if you&#8217;re not going to use it? I sorely miss my little entry level D3400.<\/p>\n<p>I knew I didn&#8217;t want to take the D750 to England, but I also didn&#8217;t want to rely on my iPhone for pictures either. \u00a0Plus I miss taking my camera with me where ever I go. \u00a0I started researching lightweight cameras with interchangeable lens. I was curious about the mirrorless cameras because they are nearly silent (helpful in street photography).<\/p>\n<p>Louis is small, extremely lightweight and silent. She&#8217;s not fancy, but she is super stylish. Her vintage look is based on Nikon&#8217;s old FE and FM film cameras. I&#8217;ve taken her out a few times already and had so much fun shooting. She&#8217;s just my speed.<\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-1323 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/rebeccaflorenphoto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/5FA4786E-422C-4F8B-A6C8-B71628681F74_1_201_a.jpeg?resize=840%2C634&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" width=\"840\" height=\"634\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/rebeccaflorenphoto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/5FA4786E-422C-4F8B-A6C8-B71628681F74_1_201_a.jpeg?resize=1024%2C773&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/rebeccaflorenphoto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/5FA4786E-422C-4F8B-A6C8-B71628681F74_1_201_a.jpeg?resize=300%2C226&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/rebeccaflorenphoto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/5FA4786E-422C-4F8B-A6C8-B71628681F74_1_201_a.jpeg?resize=768%2C579&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/rebeccaflorenphoto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/5FA4786E-422C-4F8B-A6C8-B71628681F74_1_201_a.jpeg?resize=1536%2C1159&amp;ssl=1 1536w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/rebeccaflorenphoto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/5FA4786E-422C-4F8B-A6C8-B71628681F74_1_201_a.jpeg?resize=2048%2C1545&amp;ssl=1 2048w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/rebeccaflorenphoto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/5FA4786E-422C-4F8B-A6C8-B71628681F74_1_201_a.jpeg?resize=1200%2C905&amp;ssl=1 1200w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/rebeccaflorenphoto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/5FA4786E-422C-4F8B-A6C8-B71628681F74_1_201_a.jpeg?w=1680&amp;ssl=1 1680w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 709px) 85vw, (max-width: 909px) 67vw, (max-width: 1362px) 62vw, 840px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>I can&#8217;t wait to start sharing my photos with you again!<\/p>\n<p>xoxo,<\/p>\n<p>Bec<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A few weeks ago I had the misfortune of working during a weekend that I was meant to be spending with my family following the death of my mom&#8217;s husband. \u00a0I was bitter and vowed (not for the first time and definitely not the last) that I was going to quit my job and more &hellip; <a href=\"https:\/\/rebeccaflorenphoto.com\/index.php\/2023\/03\/17\/im-back-baby\/\" class=\"more-link\">Continue reading<span class=\"screen-reader-text\"> &#8220;I&#8217;m Back, Baby!&#8221;<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"nf_dc_page":"","_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_feature_clip_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":true,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2},"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1321","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/payQKs-lj","jetpack_featured_media_url":"","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/rebeccaflorenphoto.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1321","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/rebeccaflorenphoto.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/rebeccaflorenphoto.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/rebeccaflorenphoto.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/rebeccaflorenphoto.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1321"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/rebeccaflorenphoto.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1321\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1325,"href":"https:\/\/rebeccaflorenphoto.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1321\/revisions\/1325"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/rebeccaflorenphoto.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1321"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/rebeccaflorenphoto.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1321"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/rebeccaflorenphoto.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1321"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
