    Arguably true for all hobbies. Yet my father managed to play golf, by all rights an expensive and time-consuming hobby, throughout my childhood and well before his mortgage was satisfied. As a young adult, I sailed on, and against, racing yachts owned by “dads with mortgages”. My brother-in-law is a serious hobbiest fisherman…having owned a string of boats as my niece and nephew grew up. (If you think cameras are expensive, price hand-built fishing rods. I have two…he has 20 or more.)

    I would argue that the mature age profile pertains more to an interest in arguing about cameras online than photography itself.

    I completely disagree about arguing about cameras

    ( I'm a modern man - I prefer flames )

    Varying bin sizes in this poll makes the distribution look wrong.

    My peers all using social media instead of forums now. I'd probably use IG more if it supported landscape orientation in addition to portrait. Landscape would be easier with my tablet and I don't have a smartphone.

    Only two votes for the 21-30 group. Amazing to see how many phonetards are out there...

    Hey Y'all, There is too much ageism out there in the world. Take it from me an old photogrher with a gray beard! I am 79, and my wife of 54 years is 72 and we both still work full-time at our studio.

    Here's the deal. I m 79 but my lovely wife says I behave lkie 16 and act like a 5-year-old at times (whic is handy when I photograph little kids, they find my silliness very entertaining.

    I still go to my weekly Judo class, work a full day, and do lots of industrial photography on construction sites where climbing ladders and such is routine. Don't worry, after a hot shower and a good night's sleep the pains and aches subside.

    No booze, no junk food and no smokes help! No pot!

    Age is just a number!

    I have friends that are yog that me and are bus planning ther funerals. It's depressngand morbid! I just tell you that I am my own tombstone in the shape of a camera with this inscription. "I told yoy I was sick", It always gets a laugh!

    Well, I am lookg forward to the statistic gathered fr this thread. I hope the average isn't 106 or some like that,

    Well, our daughter shot a picture of Mom Mom & Pop in the office at the studio and retouched the hell of ME. My wife actually looks like that but my real face looks like a relief map of the Himalayas. One day, I'll post my portrat take with my sharpest lens inmy monochromatic/orthochromatic effect- guaranteed- it will scare the evil spirits away from this forum!
