I was reading through this entire thread (I love it!) and came across two replies to me that I had missed:

A bag packed with 3 50mm lenses, a tele-extender, a 165 degree dionar, a flash, a cord, a Nikon D2x and an Olympus OM1n, with 2 rolls of delta 3200 and 2 rolls of trix.

As the Sponge says, "I'm ready, I'm ready, I'm ready..."

Chris, what is a "165 degree dionar" and why 3 50's ;-) ?

A Dionar is an old fashioned fisheye adapter.

I was shooting a 50mm contest that week, and had an AF 50 for the Nikon, an f/1.4 Zuiko, and an f/3.5 Macro Zuiko, both for the Oly.

This morning I grabbed my Nikon FG with a 50mm f/2 on it, loaded with trix.

Love the FG and EM for their size. Does yours have the little finger grip? Makes it much easier to hold.

Enjoy!

I have it, but I took it off, and put the camera in a crummy-looking half case. I can leave it lying around, and nobody ever even touches it. I think it scares them away!

And this FG with a 43-86mm f/3.5 is the camera I have in front of me now:

Leica III (might be an A?) with Industar 22. Running first roll through it as we speak (er, write). I find the little peep holes for viewfinder and rangefinder a PITA because I have to remove my glasses in order to frame the image properly, and the rangefinder, with it's ghost image, takes a bit of getting used to. A Bessa R it ain't. However, it's a lovely little camera and I'm having fun with it.
 
Minox GT or Zeiss 521/16 is always in my rain jacket pocket while freelancing as a designer/art director around London. Sometimes have a Leica or TLR on me if i'm not on my bicycle as i hate carrying more valuable cameras in unpadded bags or on my person after some nasty accidents.
 
Since I've received it in these last days, it's my carry-around toy since then: Leica M2 and J8. And a cloth bag with J8, J9, J12 and leicameter M and a spare roll of Tmax100, of course.
When tripping "light": CLE with summicron 40c. :)
 
Today: A Fed-2c with a Jupiter 12 and Kodak Gold 200. Not as good a fit in the pocket as my XA, but more fun.
