I was just sitting around thinking about doing some B&W film work with my old manual camera and I just kinda started wondering what other make cameras you guys use. I have had many cameras over the years, but I currently only have 2 SLR's.

My Canon Dslr is a D30, but my manual camera is a Pentax ME Super, for which I have quite a few lenses, and macro equipment.

What do you guys have?

The ME Super is the one in the middle. The others are a K-1000 and a P30t that I no longer own.

If you saw a man drowning and you could either save him or photograph the event...what lens would you use?

Besides my 10D and 20D, I have a Pentax K1000 and Canon Elan 7E that I use occasionally. My most used digital camera is not a Canon, though. It's an Olympus C-8000WZ. Finally, there's my Canon PowerShot S330, which very rarely sees any use.

I have always been a Canon fan when it comes to 35mm format. I do have the original Zenit that I first bought and the Pentax k-1000, after that they were all Canon. I did win an Olympus OM-1 system which I still have but rarely sees any use. Medium format wise I have a Pentax 6X7, a Mamiya RB ProS67 and a Rollieflex twin reflex camera. My current film camera that I use is the Canon EOS 3.

Nothing currently ... former owner of an Olympus OM-1 ... since removed from my possession (without permission) by someone who apparently needed it more. :( Sheldon, where did you say you got yours? ;)

I own 2 Nikons, a Bronica, Speed Graphic, & don't use any of them anymore except sometimes the Nikkors on the Canon. I'm trying to figure out how to attach the 50mm lens from the Bronica to add swings & tilts to the 300D ;-)a
