What is your one favorite camera as of right now?

At the moment, my favorite is my "new" 1948 Leica III-c Black-Dial / Self-Timer ( upgraded from II-c) with lovely 1946 Summitar, obtained while on holiday in Denmark.

Shot seven rolls of 36 exp Portra 160 with it while abroad... :)

Waiting in the wings is an Ansco Automatic Reflex TLR...
 
My favourite camera is the Contax II, pictured with bulk loader to feed it and a print made from it.

Very easy question to answer. Canonet QL17GIII & whatever film I have in it at the time. This was my 1st rf camera.
 
I have to say my favorite would be my Mamiya 645 with a 70mm lens as I just love medium format, but i I were to get emotional and went back to 35mm it would be my OM-10

Hi,
My favorite camera continues to be my Leica M2; it's familiar and reliable. a black Nikon FM rates honorable mention, though.

I bought an M9 in January. I Love the image quality. I mostly love.....after some practice...the handling. I love the simplicity of the camera in general.

I can imagine a camera I would prefer to the M9, with available technology.

No one makes one :(
 
A lot has changed since this was first posted. For me, my favorite camera is now the Fuji XPro2. Why? Because I enjoy using it. Also the Fuji lenses are outstanding and the Raw files are excellent. But, since all cameras made today are capable of excellent imaging, it's mainly because I enjoy using it.
 
Also for me, this changes from time to time. Currently it's a pretty unlikely one (at least for me): Ricoh GRIII

What a wonderful camera this is. I have it since the first day it was available here in Germany and haven't since one single day without that camera. I even currently trying to sell my M10, because since I have the Ricoh, it sits unused in my glass cabinet.

The Ricoh is just too much fun with impressively good image quality, handling is just perfect for me. I really love it.
 
I see that almost five years ago I selected a camera and lens combo but gave an incomplete answer.
The Nikon D800E, often on a tripod, is my choice when seeking the highest quality and/or anticipating large prints (15x20 or larger)
For me, the D800E takes on the role that used to be filled by my Mamiya 7II

For everything else, it's the Fuji X Pro2, most often with the 35mm 1.4 although I have four other excellent lenses for it.

Greatly enjoy using both these cameras in their appropriate applications.
 
Has to be my Rolleiflex. The most versatile. As much as i love the Leica, or the huge 5x7 negative from my Deardorff....the Rollei is small, light, travels well and the 6x6 neg still delivers a superior print.
