So is your camera a he or a she and what determines what makes them one or the other?

This is so easy. All cameras with a fixed lens are male.
A removable lens camera goes through a sex change every time you take off (or put on) a lens.
Furthermore, film cameras are bisexual. Digitals are mostly straight.

The best camera is one that still works!
How do you sex a camera?
In private ... with the web cam turned off hopefully!

I think this thread signals the end of photography on RFF.

Or opens up a world to a whole new type of photography!
Think positively Pickett!

I do NOT wish to see photos of midlle-aged men having intercourse with their cameras...

Now now boys and girls, lets not let this degenerate(too far). The question was, is your camera a he or a she and why?

When focusing (with left hand) : male
When the shutter is open : female (very short time generally)
Each "clic" is orgasmic.
"La camera" is literaly the bedroom - picture is the result of the exposure.

To be honest I never really attach a gender to my cameras ... and when I hear someone refering to their Leica as 'she' in a thread I cringe a little!

Oops - didn't read the clarification...
It's "she" as in "She's a beauty!"

Every time I get a new camera I immediately turn it upside down to check.

That's what I read too, or maybe the non-literal way of it.
I don't attach gender categories to my things, no matter how much I love them. I once called my Macbook Supernova and my viola instrument "Svetlana" because all my friends had names for theirs but I just felt so stupid
So...no.

I always wondered what that little screw hole in the bottom was for.
