Show us your SLR ..... WHAT?

Hello all, I just joined this forum because I love looking at the work you all produce :]
However, I am not a very Rangefinder/Film guy; I have looked through a broken Canonet once or twice and have never shot film in my life; my camera is the antithesis of the entire RF philosophy, but please don't ban me 😛 Still, I have a love for a solid 50mm f/1.4 with beautiful bokeh like the rest of you 😀

Nice rig. Why don't you borrow a film camera and take some photos.
What could it hurt? 😉

Hey great stuff. I reversed the process, have my son's OM-10 cleaned the fungus from 2 of his lenses which started my obsession with OM. Now have 2 OM-2, OM-10, OM-20, looking for a good OM-1. Im 78 !.
BTW I prefer the OM to Leica in film, mainly use digital now.

My (new to me) Olympus OM4. I bought it as-is from KEH in UG condition. Everything seems to be working as it should (running a test roll though it now). The only problem is the flash shoe needs tightened a bit (prevents flash from making good contact in some positions) Price $23.00!

Recent aquisition: Mint Nikon FE. Only four rolls ever went through it. No scratches. Lens is a used series E 50mm f1.8 that the previous owner included with the sale.

This is one of my favourite cameras. I get so many admiring glances at it. Many of you can relate I'm sure.
Olympus OM2n with Zuiko 50mm f1.4 with matching metal hood.

Ps: Does anyone have a hotshoe they want to sell that's not cracked?

the Nikkormats

the Nikkormats

Received my second early-type Nikkormat FTn today. It came with a Nikkor-HC 50/2.0 lens attached.

I had to work it for a while to free up slower speeds, and the seller had graciously included 25 years of dust on the camera with the package.

The 'firstborn' FTn has its Nikkor-P 10,5cm 2.5 almost welded to it, so I had an excuse to get me another one!

The second son has a Nikkor-S 58mm 1.4 and lens hood coming from the US.

These big boys are black paint on brass, have early style film levers, meters work and they are dented.

I love 'em!
 
I picked this up at a garage sale today for $10. It is nice and shiny, with a working light meter and new seals. Someone loved this old Praktica, I believe.

It also came with an Auto Sears MC 35/2.8 that looks like it has never been used:

which works nicely on the Yashica TL Electro X (with a clean Yashinon DS 50/2) that was also part of the deal:

Also in the box was this Hanimar "Auto S" 135/2.8. I have no idea what a Hanimar is. But it has a built in lens hood. Woo Hoo.
