how many cameras do you use regularly?

[andens2]

Further to the recent poll on beautiful cameras, I have used alot of cameras over the years and still continue to do so. At any one time I may have film in a number of cameras, (plus also use digital) I have also built up a bit of a collection. So I just wondered what was the average amount of cameras the guys here had loaded or being used on a regular basis. At the moment I have the following in use:

Mamiya RB67 Pro S
Fed 2
Voigtlander Vito ii
Sony A100
Minolta X-700 with MD1 Grip
Fujica V2
Minolta Dynax 500si
Rank Aldis
Yashica 35 GSN

 

[Ronald_H]

In no particular order

Nikon FM
Nikon FE
Nikon EM
Nikon D200
Olympus Mju-II
Canon Canonet GIII QL17
Leica M2
Fuji Finepix F60fd
Sony NEX-3
Hasselblad 500 C/M
Yashica Mat 124

11 cameras.

I use the Leica III and M2 all the time, one loaded with Delta pro 100 and the other with XP2. For a indoor low light situations I usually grab my R7 with the fast glass.
All the other cameras I have around I shoot once a month just to keep them going.

Regularly? None.

Frequently (for over 80% of my pictures), definitely 1-5.

From time to time (for over 80% of the remainder), 6-10

For the remainder (sometimes as little as one roll through a single camera): 15+

Cheers,

R.

 

[Mackinaw]

For 35mm, my Leica MP. For 120, my Rolleiflex 6006.

These are loaded, the R2a gets used most often and the Rebel S the least.
Bessa R2A
Bessa R
FED 4
FED 5
Kiev 4
EOS Elan IIe
Rebel S
Pentax UC-1
Samsung HZ-50
The Rebels S is used for one lens; I have a P6 mount 500mm mirror lens and the P6 to EOS adapter I have isn't the best as it will lock on to the Rebel S but not the Elan. So I keep the Rebel for the infrequent occasions when I want to use that 500.
And there are a few others that I use infrequently enough that I don't keep film in them: Rolleiflex, Minox B, Fujica ST605n, Pentax ES, Gakkenflex.

[RanceEric]

I use these cameras the most. Listed in order of most used-least used. 🙂

Nikon S3
Nikon F
Leica IIc
Olymus XA
Zeiss Super Ikonta B 532/16
Moskva 5
Nikon F3
Zeiss Ideal with 6x9 back

 

[retnull]

Panasonic GH-1, Konica RF, Mamiya C330.
4 or 5 others, all cheap finds, look good on the shelf.

It all depends upon what is meant by regularly. The answer lies somewhere in the range of 1 to 11+

 

[t.s.k.]

Whew !
The numbers I have in my head don't seem so excessive now.

 

[mawz]

In order of use:

Mamiya 645 Super,
Voigtlander Bessa R
Minolta Maxxum 7 (x2)
Olympus OM-4T
Olympus OM-1

I've got a couple others that don't get used as well.

 

[jsrockit]

regularly two... but own three or four.

 

[SciAggie]

I use a Canon 5DMkII, 1DsMkIII, M8, M7, and M4 regularly. I would add the RD-1, but I am sending it off to have the LCD repaired. These cameras are in use weekly. I carry the M cameras almost daily. I have other cameras I think about using but they somehow stay on the shelf when I actually go out.

 

[35mmdelux]

My M7 does not require so many back ups.

 

[MC JC86]

6-10 are in "regular" use I suppose.

Most commonly used, in order from most to slightly less:

Voigtlander Bessa R2S
Nikon S2
Pentax 67
Nikon FE
Olympus XA
Rolleiflex Automat w/ Tessar 3.5

All except Pentax are loaded all the time. I try to use ALL of my cameras at least once every couple months.. doesn't always happen.
