SLR's for rangefinder users

Minolta X700 and X370 with a variety of Rokkor lenses, Canon AE1, Exakta VXiia 135
Fujica GS645S, Pentacon 6tl, Yashica 124G, and Isolette.
 
Minolta X-370s (a couple) with mostly ROKKOR-X lenses 28, 35, 50, 85, 135, 28-70, 35-70, 35-105, and 70-210. Plus various Minolta extension tubes and bellows, 2x tele converter. Oh, and I almost forgot, a big fat Tamron 28-200 for when you are not sure you will need.

Looks like I kinda got in a rut there for a while. Now it's time to start all over with RF gear. WooHoo!
 
All Canon EOS:
350D, Elan 7, 70-200L, 75-300, 50, 28-90, Cokin Filter System

I also use some of the Minolta X Series:
X-700, 50, 35-70, 75-200
 
Nikon FM3a w/ 45mm pancake lens, compact, AE, selftimer, mirror lock-up w/ selftimer. Can take shots down to 1/15 if you trip the selftimer lever before you shoot. Doesn't get any sweeter or more compact than that in SLR land.
 
I use a Canon 10D for my digital newspaper work with my 50/1.8 and a professor's 70-200/2.8 L (I'm getting my own 70-200 next month). I just ordered a Nikon F2 Photomic instead of a Leica IIIc...something about the multiple eyepieces just bugged me like a Argus C3...
 
Another Minolta SLR user, X-700 (x2), X-570, XD-11, XG-M, SRT-101, SRT-200, SR-1 with 28's to a newly acquired 300/4.5.
also M42's w/ 6 bodies, 1x K-mount ME Super, 2x Yashica FX-3 Super's, Canon AE-1, Contaflex Super, MF Salyut.
Other main system is Canon EOS, 300D, 350D, 650 & Rebel with 15mm to 500mm lenses.
 
Canon FD mount SLRS (manual focus). I currently have an EF, T70, and an AL-1. But I started on an FL mount camera in 1970, the Canon FT-QL (which I later traded away - now I wish I had kept it as it was a sweet and highly capable camera with selective area metering).
 
My first rangefinder was a Voigtlander Prominent- it has that funny shutter speed ring just aft of the lens mount.

My first SLR came several years later, and was an Olympus OM1n. It has that funny shutter speed ring just aft of the lens mount.

Go figure.

Still own both.
