Jared Polin is a THE REASON I stayed away from Canon for 15 years.

Oh my God, what have I done? I bought a Canon. A Canon mirrorless.

And the worst part is I want to go on YouTube and watch people review Canon cameras and RF lenses, and I had forgotten whose neighborhood that is. Every other tutorial. Every other review. FroKnowsPhoto dot com.

I bought Fujifilm just to stay out of his space. I shot Nikon just to stay away from Jared Polin. Fifteen years of careful avoidance, undone by one Canon R8.

Pray for me. I’m going in.
