i'm doing it: one year, one leica

if one camera and one lens for a year will improve one's photography...just think what 2 or 3 cameras and as many lenses will do...;)
 
Send me all your other camera gear for "safe keeping" and to make sure that you don't give in to your withdrawals :)

Good luck. I don't think the camera industry endorses this and wish for your failure as it would mean the death of their sales throughput.

bouncing between cameras and lenses isn't really working for me...jack of all trades, master of none. i think the best thing would be to make a solid commitment, and hang on for dear life.
 
TBH I think it's something that would do me good. I spend far too much time thinking about which camera/format/lens to use, worrying that I might miss a trick taking the wrong kit with me when I go out (what a tart!). One day I'll sort myself out, decide what I like, get rid of the rest, go out on a shoot & get hit by a bus.

Aizan, good luck mate. I like Mabelsound's idea of blogging it.
 
Nice idea and brave of you i think ... but it could be done with any camera ... one camera, one lens and one film type maybe ... I'll take a Hasselblad.
 
i haven't decided yet. the mp is .72, so i can probably cross off 28mm because i wear glasses. i have one 35mm (summicron asph), and two 50mm lenses (m-hexanon and f1.4 nikkor ltm). i haven't used the nikkor much, and this would be a good opportunity to get really familiar with it.

as for film, i was thinking hp5, just because tri-x would be sooooo cliche. ;)
 
I don't know if I could go a year without clicking the "Classifieds" link. Good luck on your journey. I'd definitely subscribe if you blogged it.
