Favourites and also rans

[colpepper]

Following the interest in how many cameras we own, how about the ones we enjoy using most/least? It would be good to know which get used for taking photos and what gets left on the shelf.
Here's my top three in terms of frames shot, and the wallflower of the collection:

1. Nikkormat FTN
2. Canon AV-1
3. Canon FTb

Dust Gatherer:
Nikon F2

Mmmm, difficult one that.

I think its probably

1. Voigtlander Bessa R3a (although I have only run 1 film through it)
2. Ross Ensign 16-20
3. Nikon F3

But this can and indeed does change with bewildering speed and regularity.

The camera I use most is the Canon T70, next is the Minolta X-700

Least used cameras are my old manual ones or are not semi auto.....can't be bothered farrting around with varying exposures in sun/cloud UK.

 

[m_achines]

The camera I use most is my toy cameras... either the Diana F+ or the mini. After that, it'd be my trusty old (really) zenit.

 

[Sam_G]

1) Canon Av-1
2) Kiev 88
3) Spotmatic

Dust Gatherers:
The zenits (11+em) and Ricoh 500G (haven't even dev'd the first film yet, had it for a few months!)

EOS-3
A-1
Voigtlander Perkeo
Holga 120WPC

and the wallflower

Fed-3
(I've just come to the conclusion that I prefer SLR handling - though it did get pressed into use for last months "Street Photography" POTY competition, i'm glad to say - not sure how the A-1 would have coped with a brief but firm interface with one leg-draggers nose - the recycled T-44 served admirably)
