Whatcha Got?

Currently have:
. Nikon FM2n
. Pentax SF10 (to be sold - any takers?)
. Bessa R2
. Yashicamat 124G
. Korelle folder (127 film)

If I could keep three
. Nikon for macro pictures
. Bessa R2 for most use
. Yashicamat as it's fun

2 camera wishlist
. Hasselblad - probably a 501 or so
. Leica a-la-carte MP with "proper" rewind crank (no offence :) )

Now I should really get back to work... but it's sunny and bright and ugh!

Epson R-D1
Agfa Ambi Sillette
Bessa T
Bessa L
Zorki 4K
Kodak Instamatic 126


If I could only keep 3 of the above

Well the Agfa and the Kodak are non-negotiable as they are sentimental value (first camera I used, and first I owned)

So I'll keep the R-D1 and the Bessa T


My 2 camera wish list

Leica M8
Bessa II with 105mm Color-Heliar in perfect condition

(although actually I'd rather have a £10k limited edition Leica M that I can then sell to buy lots of other cameras :)

WOW I should show my wife this thread. My list is really small in comparison.

* keepers

This is way too many cameras. I would do OK with nothing but the M3. My wish list includes an MP and a small pocket digi P&S and that's it.

I have left out some cameras for sure (like the Olympus XA and the Minnox GT and ....) . The only cameras I have never used are the LF cameras.

Raid
 
I have three cameras: an M2, an FM3a and a Canonet QL19 close to retirement. This is not really an exercise in parsimony, it's just that I 've started photography very recently.

However this past year I bought and sold a number of cameras: M3, two FM3As (other than the one I now have), Konica Auto S2, Pentax Spotmatic, Pentax KX, Canon EOS 1000, Canon EOS 650, and a Holga.

panasonic FX9 p&s.

I`m selling the above to finance an M7/50 lux, or M6ttl if I can`t wait!

My 2 camera wishlist for the rest of time .....

xpan/45mm
M6ttl or M7/50 lux, 21/4 cv.
 
And another year has passed....

And another year has passed....

Well, the progress has been poor... still too much to shoot. Inventory was not really fun, but here goes:

Leica M3 SS, IIIf RDST, IIIa
Contax III, IIa BD, IIIa BD, IIIa CD (2)
Canon SII (2), IIB (2), IIf, III (2), IVS, IVSb2, VI-T, P, 7, 7s (2), 7sz
Canonflex (3), R2000, RP (3), RM (2)
Canon FL/FD FX, FP, Pellix, FT-QL, TL-QL, EX-EE, EX-Auto, F-1, F-1n (2), F-1N,
FTb-QL, EF (3), TLb, TX, AE-1, AT-1, A-1 (3), AV-1, AE-1P
Arax (Kiev) 645, Mamiya G, Busch 2x3, Speed Graphic 2x3 (2), Crown Graphic
2x3, Rolleiflex 3.5E1, 2.8F 12/24, Yashica D, Ansco Auto Reflex (2)
Zorki 1, Kiev II, Moskva 5
Retina II

And, some odds and ends. That doesn't include lenses by the score, motor drives, bellows, hoods, and some stuff I'm not even sure about.

3 I'd keep... you gotta be kidding... well, the M3, best Contax, 7sz, Rollei 2,8F
and the Crown and... :bang:

Wish list: Kodak EKtra with backs and lenses, B&H Foton, just because I wanted them when I was a kid and never owned either one.

I'm almost willing to concede that my wife may have a point about my being just a bit compulsive. BTW, I also love music and have several thousand CD's around + the audio gear to play them properly. And the library, and the Philately sideline (with its specialized library). The condo is getting cramped.
