What camera(s) have you got/do you mostly use? Its good to be able to put a camera to a name

And Its probably been done before, but who is still shooting film on a regular basis?

Congrats on the new camera!

I use my D70S all the time now, although I've kept the Coolpix 5700 for occasions where the D70S might get damaged or wet or something. I've even kept my old Sony S75, but to be honest I've not used it in ages - ever since the D70S arrived, in fact...

I never use film these days, except in our Canon underwater camera. I think I'd find it difficult to go back to being limited to 36 shots per roll.

have a canon 350d and a minolta A2 (for now).

Will be selling the A2 soon to fund a lens...

use the dSLR for verything I can do for now and the A2 for anything else. Typicaly if I havnt got my friends 70-200f4 for long range shots, macro or when I want total quiet.

I've just sold all my Canon and large format gear to buy this one - it's great!

A good photographer should be able to get good results even with that

300D, depending on how I feel in a couple of years, I may go to a 5D.

Those big grey boxes on poles they put on the side of the road are said to be quite good. They don't sell them anywhere, so I guess I'll just take one from its pole, as I can't see them doing any good just sitting there.

I know what you mean. I had to F70s and an X700 lying around gathering dust. My X700 was my first SLR so that's staying (plus the f2.8 prime lenses are a joy to use) but i've sold one of my F70s and the other will go as soon as I find someone who still shoots film!

Canon 1DS is my main stay.

Have in my collection a NIkon F3 and FE2.

Want to own a Leica and Hasselblad before I die. And a Linhof too (I do have a Linhof biro though ) Would love an Xpan to play around with. I do miss film sometimes

Nearly forgot, a Canon S50 and a couple of truly appalling compacts that aren't worth the box they came in, lurking somewhere in the bottom of a drawer.

Nikon D70, plus an ever growing collection of lenses.

For the future, hell I can't even use what I've got, so no I'll stick with this until I can consistently take the photos I want to take - and that they come out as I want them to.
