I forgot to use discipline/restraint when buying extra cameras because they're beautiful.
I use them too (a lot actually), but still...they're so damn pretty

I have a "problem"...
Welcome to the club, we replaced the jackets with cameras!

You'll have to pry these from my cold dead hands, which will no doubt happen because I don't have a jacket.

A Nikon N2000 to get the MB-3 battery base. It was cheaper to buy a whole dead camera than just buying the MB-3!

LTM Canon 50mm 1.5 in UG condition off KEH. Have been real lucky with my past two UG purchases from them. We'll see how this one goes...

A Voigtländer Vito CL, bought in Els Encants flea market, in Barcelona. It was among a pile of much less interesting cameras, thrown like trash. But works still well.
And a very very old Krügener Delta Klapp, made c. 1900-1903. It's one of the earliest cameras I have and my older German camera.

Why having two Ihagee 9x12 plate cameras made a year apart in the 20's together in one image? Because one (left) is a family heritage, but the other (right) was bought online recently.
In fact, both cameras are practically identical to one another. Apart from the minimal material differences, there is one more substantial change for me. The Ihagee Patent Duplex to the left was my grandfather's camera, but it's not owned by me, but by my older sister. Instead, this "clone" is really mine, found and bought online. And I say clone because not only it is a Ihagee Patent Duplex 720 in 9x12cm size as that of my grandfather, but it has the same shutter and the same lens. Finding one with identical shutter was easy, this is the ubiquitous dial-set Compur, but the lens was much more a lucky strike.
So now I will be able to take pictures as if taken with the camera of my grandfather, and with some advantages: I must not suffer so much in using it since there is no family bond (and so less responsibility if sometheing brokes), and above all it is in even better shape. In fact, it looks and feels almost as manufactured a few years ago, not in the 20's.
As I said, the material differences are minimal, a slight change in the shape of the bubble level associated with the "brilliant" viewfinder, and especially an external viewer on the side of the camera. If that of my grandfather seems to be manufactured in 1926-27, this one, by serial number, was made slightly earlier, in 1925. The shutter is a dial-set Compur and the lens is a Meyer Görlitz Doppel-Anastigmat Veraplan f4.5 / 135mm. The difference in the serial number between this one and that of my grandfather is 1200 lenses (and for theshutters, about 35,000).
My grandfather's Ihagee is the one to the left (not mine now, but my sister's), and MY Ihagee is the one to the right, with the collapsible viewfinder.

This is one is a New Special Sibyl roll-film model, only about 1300 of these +the plate model were made between 1913 and 1936. The lens is a Ross Xpress f4,5 112mm. It looks like the lens and camera were made c.1924-25.
And it works quite well, here with Ilford Ortho Plus 80 ISO.

Traded in some unused gear at KEH and got a Fuji X-T1 as a "digital back" for my OM lenses. Haven't gotten out to shoot much, mostly just boring photos around the house of teapots, dirty dishes and yours truly while figuring out how the thing works.

Too many things, it seems. For work I just bought a Ricoh Theta 360, and for myself I bought three cameras — a gorgeous nickel-plated Tiranty Verographe stereo camera, an equally gorgeous Jeanneret Monobloc stereo camera, and I just took a chance on a Rolleiflex Old Standard from KEH that was listed ‘as-is’. I won’t be seeing the stereo cameras for at least a month because they’re both located in Europe.

For almost a week now I've had a new Fuji xt3 and the learning curve has been flattened! I like the camera very much and the rendering in color is so wonderful that I still can't get over it. Beautiful, beautiful.

Re: your Sony
Re: your Sony
I have the original Sony A7 now for about 3 years or so. I bought it because I had many Nikkor lenses, Konica AR lenses, Zuiko and others too. The nice thing I could use them all with adapters on the A7 and I really loved that. Now, I'm happy with the Fuji and the kit 18-55 lens and not contemplating more Fuji equipment.
