What camera are you carrying RIGHT NOW?

Hexar RF, Elmar 50mm with APX 400. This proves I have a camera with a mark on it ;)

ZI with f1.4/50mm nikkor and a Holga both with Tmax100. Holga? Yeah Holga! Only the second go since I bought it from Sug a year ago. First time with a film only kit in a few years.
 
I gave my black Canonet to my sisterinlaw because I am cool like that...so I am carrying my Contaflex Super loaded with Kodachrome for now...
 
Ricoh GRD III, but there is a Leica M2 with 50mm collapsible Summicron right next to it that I'm going to start carrying as soon as I find a new place to process film! Just moved to Philly and have yet to find somewhere good and cheap yet....
 
As much as I like manual focus of a rangefinder, lately my carry around cameras have been - Hexar AF and Pentax UC-1 (small compact P&S with a very nice lens).
 
I still have that Olympus XA2, that I bought for my g/f in Brick Lane/London, in my pocket.

(and the M4+1.2/35 right in front of me of course.)

Andy, Looking forward to your Holga shots. Wow it's been a year huh? ;)

I've been carrying IIIf & Elmar combo for a while so I'm switching to M2 & Nikkor-HC 50/2 combo for a bit. II & Summar should be here before the weekend so M2 needs some love right now...

FE2 and E35/2.5. (It thinks it is a rangefinder.)
The more I have shot with the 35, the more I leave home my 50s. The 35 is more natural all of a sudden. Oh man, do I have a fever?
 
When I go out I have my Leica Standard with CV 25/4 and Fuji Superia 400 in one vest pocket and my Summitar 50/2 in another vest pocket. My 6x9 Kodak Medalist II with Kodak Portra 400NC and a Metz 45 CL1 is always in the car.
 
This past weekend I was out shooting ( Saturday at the AACA Fall meet in Hershey, PA, and Monday on an outing checking out the Susquehanna County Arts Tour), and took my trusty, crusty 1934 Leica III user kit.

Was shooting Kodachrome 64, all with a pre-War Elmar 35, uncoated, with FIKUS hood.

Subjects ranged from Antique cars to landscapes to flowers to people...

I am home and getting ready to photograph a couple of cameras and lenses to sell on ebay and maybe one for the classifieds here. My two S3s are waiting for me in the car. One with a Nikon 50/1.4 and the other with a CV 35/2.5 lens plus a few other CV lenses that I bought not long ago from Stephen Gandy for my Nikon RFs. I have a Nikkor 3.5cm/2.5 lens that should arrive tomorrow. - jim
 
Lost the bloody freakin lens cap on my canonet. So I am angrily towing a heavy F with an equally or more heavier distagon 25mm ZF on it. Damn the lens caps.

I'm still digging on my $10 Petri 7S and even though I have yet to take what I consider a decent artistic shot oozing character with it, I'm amazed that every shot I have taken is in focus and just about perfectly exposed, considering it has a fifty year old selenium meter. Even the guesstimated shots off the chest have been dead on. Lousy compositions and uninspiring subject matter maybe, but otherwise pin sharp with better image quality than my Oly e-520 dslr can generally muster.

And even though it's 100% manual, I find it faster, smoother and easier to use than the Yashica GSN, or even the XA.

That's just this week though. I'm still trying to work up the courage to make the jump up to MF with my pretty new Mamiya C2.
It's all loaded and ready for that decisive moment(lol), I'm just skeered and haven't rationalized any photo worthy subject matter. :eek:
