Show us your SLR ..... WHAT?

[p.giannakis]

btw in case you are wondering, the little (lol, only by comparison) Zuiko is within shouting distance of the MP performance wise. and not in that bull**** 90% of the performance for 50% of the price way either, but really and truly it runs with the MP. The Olympus is a bit lower on contrast, but that has always been true of the brand. Fine detail contrast of both lenses is INTENSE.

How do you find the Olympus?

I like it.

Sort of.

I'd rather use the OM-1, but I cant use the Series 2 screen with it and to be fair the metering, either the spot or the off-the-film in aperture priority mode, is really good.

If you aren't going to shoot the Zeiss ZF lenses or maybe Leitax'd Leica R lenses, I'd recommend it over the Nikon since Im not too hot on Nikkors (some exceptions apply, but in general I prefer the high end Zuikos to the high end manual Nikkors). I'd probably recommend an OM-4ti over the 2SP though. I don't think you would regret spending a bit more to get the multi-spot metering and a circuit that can legitimately turn off.

Helium dependent...

Fantastic camera but it's a heavy beast so I had to make a strap that was better at distributing the weight.
It's a great body for R glass but I'm still using my R6.2 for the important stuff.

I copied the design from Vulture Equipment Works. (Google is your friend 😉)

I guess I can drop this in here too 🙂

Pentax M* Limited 400mm f4 ED IF

Now that's some serious glass 😱

Got any shots done with it to share?

just got this gem 😀

This thing is heavy as a brick, but oddly doesn't feel that well built. I bought it because of the waist level finder. The look probably inspired the Cylons from the original Battlestar Galactica.

The humble Nikon FE

 

[Rodchenko]

No need for an FE to be humble. It's a lovely camera (though I'd prefer an FM2, TYVM 😉 )

A cute little camera that looks better in person than in the pictures.

I was pleasantly surprised with how quiet it is....
