How many cameras do you have and which do you prefer?

Fujifilm X-T1 - Superb do it all camera, plus great for wandering around and generally looking cool:

Fujifilm X-E2 - Nice light body, ideal for street shooting with a small prime or for lobbing in a bag for a day out with the kids. Also great for wandering around with, looking cool:

Fujifilm X-E2 with 18mm f/2

Canon EOS 6D - Great performer in low light up to about ISO 10000, but also a great partner for my Contax Zeiss Lenses. Used for product shots and landscapes when I get the chance, this camera doesn't make me feel cool. But it's great for hitting things with:

Canon 5D MK3 + a few red rings - My go to, shoot everything camera, from landscape/portrait/wildlife/sports&action
Iphone 5 - My always with me camera, what is it they say, the best camera is the one you have with you.

Lomo FIsheye - had for a while used a few time
Lomo Konstruktor - got for christmas and need to actually build it!
 
I have a Canon stable:

7D Mk1
7D Mk2
6D
And an Eos 620 film body, which I've had from new. Here's a an interesting page... http://www.kenrockwell.com/canon/film-bodies/eos620.htm

The 7D2 is my goto body for wildlife & motorsport, the 6D for everything else. The 7D1 is back up, or fitted with a 17-55 f2.8 it's a walkabout for the wife (like I'm going to let her lose with the Mk2 ????)

In my Nikon lineup I have the D810 which is by far my favorite. I have a D200 and my first DSLR the D70 (which I loved but don't use anymore - often think sometimes I should for old times sake!). I also have an S9300 which I bought primarily for foreign holidays but this never gets used anymore as I just take the D810.

I've also got a bunch of old 35mm cameras that I picked up for fun at an antiques fair - Dacora, Ilford, Pentax and a Zenit-E that a relative gave me. I'm pretty sure these no longer work but made for a good macro photography practice/study!

...just added another to my collection - bought it for my wife (or so I keep telling myself)... a Fuji X30
 
Between the 2 of us we have these at the moment but will be making some changes soon the D4S and D800 will be going to be replaced by something else:

Nikon D4S
Nikon D810
Nikon D800
Nikon D750 X2

Fuji X-Pro1
Fuji X100T

The Nikons are for work the Fuji's for fun can't really say that I really prefer one over another.

Can you please cover up that 56mm F1.2, it's quite obscene ! I really do not want one to go on my Fuji XT1 GS :banghead:
 
Canon 5DC
Canon EOS M
Canon EOS M2
Fuji X100T
Fuji X Pro 1
Fuji XT-1

Soon to add Fuji X Pro2 and I may trade in the X Pro 1, but I'm not sure I want to lose it. My most used camera is probably the X100T as its so handy, closely followed by the XT1. I sold my Canon 5D3 and all my L glass 6 months back, I do miss it even though it wasn't being used enough.
 
Panasonic DMC-L1 - My first, LOVE this camera, it still takes fantastic photos but its lack of MP lets it down some times when you need to crop. I will never let this camera go.
Olympus E3 - I never really got on with this camera, I like it but never had that special link with it.
Nikon D3300 - I also love this camera, its extremely light and portable and takes cracking photos even with the kit lens.
Nikon D7100 - I got this last week, I like it but still getting used to it at the moment. I went for it as the D3300 lacks short cut buttons/dials that I need for taking photos at gigs. (I'm still not sure if it was worth the money I paid as the D3300 is still a cracking bit of kit).

Both the Nikons are Grey Imports.
 
Main camera is Canon 5DM3 a great all rounder and second is Hasselblad H3Dii for special studio and landscape shooting. Photography is a family hobby so in addition daughter has 70D, son 700D. My first DSLR the 350D is converted for IR. In addition a couple of compacts and medium format film cameras from around 1960.

Just two for me, Sony A7II and Leica Q, both excellent as for a favourite it's got to be the Q it just feels so right in my hands.
 
Now I'm down to the D750 with a fairly full lens lineup and the Fuji X Pro2 with 16mm and 56mm lenses.

As much as I love the D750 and think it's pound for pound the best DSLR you can get, the X Pro 2 is the one i'd reach for first. Could be the camera that sees me switch fully over to mirrorless.

1) Canon 5D Mark III (my main camera, which I love)
2) Canon 7D Mark II (I have mixed feelings about this, as it's superb in all respects except for IQ in low light, which is a significant part of my photography. It's in my bag for the reach only)
3) Panasonic LX100 (for me, the best compromise between body and sensor size for gig photography where a non removable lens is a necessity)
4) Sony RX100 (hasn't seen any use since I got the Panasonic owing to the latter's viewfinder and superior low light performance despite its superior resolution).

I still regret selling my Fuji X100 on here, but I've managed to resist the temptation to buy another one so far as the prime lens makes it a specialised camera for me.
