your oldest regularly used digital camera

[Roberto V.]

The only digital I own at the moment is my Canon 10D which is 5-7 years old. It's still a great camera, I love it.

My Powershot A60 packed up after 5 years. Currently own no digital.

I use a Nikon D1 for fun now and then.

I use a Nikon E3 for documenting my projects. It is full-frame, and can use my SB-29 macro light. PCMCIA cards make it easy for slapping the card into a laptop on the net. It is from the late 90s.

My Canon A620 has been a great little camera five years on and if you take your time is capable of impressive results. It started making a weird noise when focusing a while ago but still seems to be fine ... I've actually been hoping it would die so I can upgrade to something better but that doesn't seem too likely.

I agree with Frank's comments about the Nikon D70 ... I don't think anyone has made a better digital SLR than this camera and when I sold mine after four years I was amazed at it's resale value ... when Nikon get it right they really get it right!

leica digilux1 from 2002. been using it off and on since new.

Ive been using it a lot lately, its still fun to shoot with. shame that its a bit low res and the color is horrid, but its makes for a fine b&w camera.

I put 3 years, (Pentax K20d) because the OP mentioned Digital...BUT, I have a 1973 RF (Leica M5) that I use a few times a month also..

I use Nikon CoolPix 5700, a 5MP DSLR-like, which have ED lens and gave me nice picture when shoot in raw file mode.

 

[Frank Petronio]

I have a floppy from my Canon Zapshot. No f-ing idea how I'll ever read that thing ;-)

That Nikon E3 Brian has is the champ, that is one ugly camera.

 

[LeicaTom]

Had a Sony CD500 since 2003, it just DIED like 1 week ago, greatest little 5MP digital ever made! (w/ Zeiss Vario- Sonnar , had about 80k on shots) with one repair.

RIP

Canon 1Ds since 2003. I like the images from it better than my recently purchased (and sold) Nikon D300s. Can't really explain why.

epson rd1 .. I think it's six years, but may be five, I had had it just under 1

Leica M8. As of this coming August, I will have had it for three years.

 

[Steve M.]

It's just a little P&S and I bought it used 5 years ago, but my Fuji E550 has a cracking lens and non existent shutter lag. Use it primarily for traveling and fleabay and RFF ads.

The only digital I have is a Kodak 4530 hand me down. I answered 7 years since I think that's about how old it is but I haven't had it all those years.

 

[Al Patterson]

I have a vintage 2005 Sony P&S that I still use from time to time. Since I bought the DSLR, it doesn't get as much use, but it is one of the cameras in my regular rotation of usable cameras.

 

[Ducky]

Sony Cybershot DSC-S40 - 4meg. Almost 5-6 years maybe? Still working fine and used mainly for ebay stuff.

The first digital camera I bought was the D70s. I bought it in 2005 and I would still be using it if I hadn't given it to my daughter to use. She is still using it. Like Frank, I upgraded to the D300, but the D70s is so much lighter, its battery seems to last forever and it is much less complicated to use than the D300. The D300, however, is better for underwater photography, which is why I bought it in the first place. It has many more focus points than the D70s and is a much more sophisticated camera in general.

D70s, my first and only digital camera. I'm mostly shooting film these days, using the D70s for sports (ie times when I want to shoot a lot of pictures relative to the number of keepers) and when using strobes (ie when I really value iteration and don't trust myself to get it right)

If I update it, it will probably be solely for improved iso performance. That is really my only major complaint with the camera.

Lumix FX01 - acquired early Summer '06, used mainly for quick web uploads, documenting projects and camera p0rn. Last use was to shoot the E-P1, seven mos. ago.... 😉
