Technique does come into it. Making sure that when its your turn, you swing the hardest part of your conker into the softest of the opponent. Stewart hasn´t stated who gets first swing, but I voted F-1 none the less.

personally I think strap lugs are crucial, are the canon’s riveted?

I watch Top Gear religiously, not only is it funny as hell and very creative, the photography done in it is great learning material.

I was just going to post this … to show how it hadn’t influenced me

but I discovered one can’t post photos in a poll

Hmm...are any cameras actually going to be harmed in this little exercise?

And, yes, the F-1 would positively atomize that Exacta, though it might lose a bit of paint in the process. (And, you could pick it up afterward and photograph the Exacta's remains.)

oh for the love of God why do I get suckered into voting in these crazy polls? :bang:

I really felt bad voting against the F3, and I now have to buy an accessory for it as I feel guilty about it. See what you've done?!

OK we have four clear winners from the quarter-finals they are in order;

Oly OM1
Nikon F3
Canon F-1
Leica SL

at this point I will ask Samantha to agitate the balls, and choose the semi-final pairings
