No. My photos aren't that physically large. If I try to blow them up too large, they get all fuzzy.

For film, I use a Leica IIIf (1953 vintage) with 35. 50, 90 and 135mm lenses. But I haven't shot film in at least 10 years.

I have a Fuji X-T2 with a variety of Fuji X lenses. I also have a Manfrotto tripod from Best Buy. Nice little tripod for a great price.

Unfortunately you can't go much larger than a 16 x 20 print with a 10 MP sensor before it starts to pixelate.

I was a newspaper photographer for 20 years in a previous life (back in the film days), and just recently retired from camera sales after 15 years of that!

I had 5 DSLR's (4 different brands), but recently gave one of my Canon's to a friend as I've switched to mirrorless cameras (still have 4 of them).

Currently have 2 Olympus and one Panasonic mirrorless bodies and several lenses...much easier on the back than those clunky monster DSLR's!!

I only shoot digital now, but I still have the wonderful Minolta 101 SLR that I bought as a college student in 1972. You may remember them. The only reason it needed a battery was for the light meter. Would like to relive some of the things I've seen through those Rokkor lenses.

Me too...

Last time I shot film was the day before I switched to digital...

I still have all of my film cameras (except the two Canon F1's that got stolen)...

They do take incredible pics. My 50mm Summicron is a F1.2. The 35mm is an ELmar F3.5, the 90mm is a Elmar F1.4 and the 135mm is a Hektor F4.5. Gotta love separate view finders for each lens.

When was the M9 made? The IIIf is from about 1953 and I have an older model also, likely from the late '30's early '40's (don't recall off hand).

I too carry mirrorless much lighter especially if a heavy glass lens is mounted. I have the Olympus OM-D E-M1 love this camera. My goto lens is the 12-40 F2.8 Pro, great glass. My telephoto is 4\3 300MM with Micro 4\3 adapter. Mate a 2X teleconverter with this lens it has some reach though it is not fast. Saving for the newer 300MM Pro lens.
