The 'How many have you got' competition :-)

[mcgrattan]

My tally:

Medium Format:

Fuji GS645S
Moskva-2


35mm:

Kiev 4A [needs repair]
Fed-4
Zorki 2C
Kodak Retina IIc


The Zorki 2c and the Kodak Retina are the cameras that get the most use at the moment although, over time, the Fed-4 is definitely the 35mm camera that has produced the highest percentage of 'keepers'. The Fuji takes *amazing* photos and is the camera I always use when travelling.

I have, in addition, 3 x 35mm SLRs [2 Pentax K-mount and one EOS], one medium format SLR [Salyut-C], a TLR [Flexaret Automat VII] and a couple of autofocus compact cameras. For a total of about 14 cameras. I'm selling a few though, so will probably be down to 11 cameras in the next month or so.

Konica IIIA.
Braun Super Paxette (I?)
Kodak Retina IIc.

(Also a Rolleicord Vb; Nikon F, FM3a, and F80; and a Pentax K100D - but they don't count 😀 )

And there are a couple of Lordomats calling to my credit card as I type...

[oftheherd]

Somehow I missed this thread. I have a lot of cameras. More than I need; just ask my wife.

But it is senseless to post at this point since I don't have a list and could never compete with weirdcollector anyway. Nice stable man!

But I will make a list, because it occured to me that with all I have, I need one with approximate values in the unfortunate event I might need to prove to my insureance company that I have a small stable too. Thanks for that idea Rich Silfver.

Maybe after that I will post. I must have some 40 or so including SLR's, fixed lense RF's, Super Press 23's, folders in 35mm and 120, 4x5's and an 8x10, along with misc odd things like Kodak 616, and a brick. Whew. Scary to think of.

It's good that there is a place where i can post about that.....inclination....without somebody being worried about my state of mind!

When I strted to take photos Iw ascurios and they simply strted to accumulate.....years later when a friend sold me a Retina for cheap I caught "Retinitis" and strted to collect and use thos esystematically.
my favourite Retina's: Ia, IIc & IIC and IIIS
my other favourites: Nikon FM and Bessa R + Serenar 50/1,8

There are SLR cameras, too, but I believe the request was for rangefinder gear.

 

[etrigan63]

Just the one M8, I'm afraid.

Several 6x6 folders

3. Ghost cameras
I don't know what I have.

I used to own only the M3 as my sole RF camera. What happened to me?

 

[DrLeoB]

Ahhhh.... I love the new category Raid !!!

Ghost Cameras.... I'm pretty sure I have MANY...😉

I also forgot my M3...

I know that I have left out cameras from my list, so in their "honor", I have them as Ghost Cameras. 😀

 

[MikeL]

Nikon S2, Rolleiflex, Leica III, M3, M4.

No digital of my own right now, but I'm eyeing the Ricoh GX-100......
