how many are loaded?

[Luc More]

4 at least right now: Pen EES, mju Zoom 105, Chinon CP5 and Canon T60.

I was shooting last week with a rangefinder. When I was done I pulled the film to process and reloaded both cameras.
I have about 10 sheets of 5x7 loaded and ready to go and about 8 sheets of 4x10. I could be out the door in a couple minutes with the LF gear. The rangefinder's would just need to be dumped in a bag and I'm ready.

[Rob Skeoch]

When I thought about it for a minute I realized my film gear is ready to go while my digital stuff is all over the place, and the cameras are set at weird settings, and white balance. They would take longer to find and get ready than the film gear. lol.

 

[Ap507b]

7 cameras loaded. 3 with Ilford FP4 & XP2 (F3, FA & Zenit EM), 2 with Sensia (F5 & FM2), one with Agfa Vista (F3) & one with Fuji Superia (F). 3 cameras unloaded (FE2, F65 & F80)

 

[Toffle]

Rob makes a good point, it's not just how much gear is loaded, but how ready is it to actually get set for a shoot?
My smaller formats are all set to grab and go, but my LF gear requires a bit more to be ready for work.

 

[JBrunner]

I'm loaded quite a bit, mostly on weekends though.

 

[DWThomas]

Generally I have between zero and one! My film use tends to be on deliberate planned projects and I like to be able to make last minute decisions on which film I'm going to use. But this thread reminded me I need to finish a started roll in my Perkeo II!

 

[E. von Hoegh]

If you posses more than 1(one) camera, how many of them are loaded and ready for shooting?

Just the one with film in it.

- Ansco Memo has a 400-speed film. Don't recall which film. Either Tri-X or a rebadged Agfapan APX400.
- Zeiss Ikon Tengoflex has Agfapan APX400.
- Rollei 35 has some kind of film in it. Maybe some Kodak Gold 200. Battery is dead.
- Zeiss Ikon Contax II has been loaded with some brand of 50-speed film for the past two years.
- Zeiss Ikon Contax IIa has something in it. Can't recall. Probably will need to pull it to check.
- Zeiss Ikon rangefinder - Ilford Pan F, I think.
- Zeiss Ikon Super Ikonta B has a roll of 100-speed b/w. Not sure which one. Might need to check.
- Zeiss Ikon Super Ikonta C has a roll of 100-speed Adox.
- Balda CE has something in it, last time I checked. Probably b/w.
- Lomo 35mm might have some film in it.

I think that's it, although there might be a camera here or there that's still loaded.

one 135, one 120, and there is a sheet of trimmed 4x5 film in my Kodak 3A. You struck a nerve though... at the moment the 35 and medium format are both 100 speed film, and it's making me think I need another of each for faster. Just an excuse for GAS, ( need to have a "backup" body.... I'm eyeing an FM2N... ) ... ...

 

[Roger Cole]

Three 35mm cameras in the 35mm bag, all loaded (I think. I'm not even sure.)

Mamiya 645 is loaded because it has a loaded back on it, but there are both other backs already loaded and at least one empty back in the bag with it.

Yashicamat124 is currently empty.

I have 11 4x5 holders. Ten of them are currently loaded.

 

[Paul Howell]

I have a 20 or so 4X5s loaded with Forma 200 and 2 35mms one with Tri-X the other with Kodacolor 200. Currently I am using Pentex auto focus with windows so I can see what film I have, if I am using my older 42mm or Konicas I keep a strip of masking tape on the back of the body with the name of the film and date I loaded the film. Couple of months ago I was cleaning some of my old 35mm I have not in years and found a Spot with a roll of Agfa 100 in it, I still need to shoot what is left and process.

 

[Peltigera]

Out of my thirty and a few cameras, two have film in them. A Voigtlander Vito II loaded with Agfa APX 100 (about half the film left to expose) and a Voigtlander Vitomatic II loaded with Agfa 200 ISO colour print film (one exposure left but we are barely getting daylight here at the moment. I have a roll of Fujifilm Portia 120 film waiting in the fridge which will be used in the next week or two as and when we get a hint of sun. I shall use it in my Franka Solida III and go to Welney to look at the migratory swans.

 

[E. von Hoegh]

Just the one with film in it.

Actually there's a Nikkormat FtN with 100 speed c41, an F with Tri-X, a 4x5 Graphmatic with T-Max 400, and a Linhof Super Rollex 6x7 back with PKR 64 in it - since about 1994 or so.

 

[Bill Burk]

Normally I have a few loaded and ready to take.

I think I got close to catching up on processing this fall, so right now most are empty.

The M2 has a few shots of TMAX 100 in it.

Yesterday I took the Kodak 35 and the original Weston Master to Watsonville. Did not find any pea pickers. It's got a few more shots of Plus-X.

And the APS camera, ELPH 490Z, has a newly loaded 25 shot roll of Kodak 200 in it, ready for snapshots tomorrow.

My teenager's Minolta Freedom 140EX has some Kodak 200 in it as well. He might take some shots tomorrow.

 

[Hatchetman]

Right now, four, which is more than I can reasonably keep track of. What the hell kind of film is in that camera? The other day I opened the back of a camera thinking it was empty. Brand new roll wasted.

 

[Clay2]

Nikon F2AS & MD-2 motor, colour,

2 Minolta SR-T101's, one clour, one B&W,

Pentax Super Program, colour,

Minolta HiMatic 7S, B&W,

Yashicamat 124 G, (120/220).Just finished roll B&W, now loaded with colour,

Canon S1 IS, and S3 IS, digital , fresh batteries.

I use one camera every day depending on my mood. Sometimes 2 or 3,

film testing, lens testing.

Best regards,

/Clay

 

[Pumalite]

I'm loaded all year round.

 

[BenjaminM]

My Fuji GX680 (my only film camera at the moment) is not loaded, however I always keep one roll each of Portra 160, Portra 800, Velvia 50, Ilford FP4 and Delta400 ready in my pocket. Just in case...

 

[Ipno Tizer]

Only the Altix-n at the moment. I've got a roll ready for the OM1 which currertly has a flat battery and severat rolls of 120.But were struggling with the weather at the moment. So the film might end up staying in the fridge.

 

[Gerald C Koch]

I promptly process exposed film. A camera is a poor environment for film. There are possible light leaks, exposure to pollutants in the atmosphere, etc. All of mine are empty until I am ready to take pictures.

 

[Thomas Bertilsson]

Right now, three, if loaded 5X7 film holders count.

 

[Ali-C]

For now just my Zeiss Netter, it's got half a roll of Velvia 100 left, the Bronica and the F3/T are empty at the moment, but they'll get loaded up the next time they get taken out.

 

[Jim Rice]

All three. Contax with Portra 400, Yashica-Mat with Portra 160 and the Kodak Stereo with Velvia 50.

 

[Jim Rice]

And loaded film holders count double.
