How many cameras do you have loaded with film right now?

[Anon Ymous]

I've got one (EOS 33V) loaded with Delta 400 since March. Shame on me.

 

[Philippe-Georges]

None right now as I am just back from a one week trip to the Limousin, and wil start developing tomorrow.

 

[Sirius Glass]

Still to many. I am going to stop reloading the less used film cameras from now on.

 

[David Brown]

Zero.

Even when I was using film regularly, I never kept a camera just sitting around loaded with film. I know I'm in the minority here.

It is funny that I come from a middle class American background where almost everyone had a consumer camera of some sort (Brownie, Instamatic, et al) with film in it, so that at any moment, someone in the family could say: "Get the camera!"

 

[Helios 1984]

- Topcon 35-L w/ Kentmere 400
- Minolta 16 MG w/ Kodak Vision2 200T (expired)

 

[skahde]

The Leica IIIf has still some Delta 400 loaded that I inserted last winter. Time to put it to good use again. I'm looking forward to it. Another roll of Portra 160 in the Nikon F3 got finished and rewound today.

 

[benderscameracorner]

Three.

Delta 400 (rated to 1600) in a Nikon FM.
Ultramax 400 in a Olympus Pen FT.
SFX200 in a Bronica ETRSi back, which I still think is at Frame 1 because the last time I went out I forgot how many stops compensation was needed for an R72 filter, and when I finally figured it out, the sun disappeared :-/

That's how I solved the "...I forgot how many stops compensation was needed for an R72 filter.."
problem:

The back of my Gossen DigiporF lightmeter.
A piece of white Gaffer tape and a permanent marker is all you need.
Hoya filters with Hp5+: Yellow -0,5 stop, Yellow-Green -1, Orange -2 and Red -2,5.

Bronica filters are made by HOYA, so I keep a copy of the leaflet that came with a filter in my camera bag, just in case...

BTW: on the used market, Hoya filters are as good as but cheaper than B+W...

The man's a genius ;-)

Excuse me while I go find a sticky label for my light meter...

 

[TomR55]

At this moment: two Leica M4-Ps, one loaded with Ilford FP4+, the other with Kodak TriX. I have about six to ten frames out of 36 remaining on each body.

It has nothing to with genius, simply a few years as a Boy Scout will do...

 

[88E30M50]

Right at the moment,

Zeiss Ikon Nettar - Kentmere 100
Canon A-1 - Kentmere 100

I'll be heading to a Cars-n-Coffee event tomorrow and will be shooting a Pentax MX with more Kentmere 100.

 

[Sirius Glass]

Still too many.

 

[Radost]

Still too many.

9 on 2 continents and 3 countries

 

[dave olson]

None. The temperature outside is 116F.

 

[Radost]

None. The temperature outside is 116F.

Is that a problem?

 

[Alan Edward Klein]

Some of my cameras have had film in them unchanged and unused for over a year and left in a hot and cold garage. I only wonder what it's done to the film??

 

[1957ExaktaVarexIIa]

Normally...

My standard gear:
Contax RTS II - Fomapan R100 (black-and-white slides)
Contax RTS II - Ektachrome E100 (colour slides)
Contax RTS II - Fujichrome Velvia 50 (colour slides for cloudy days)
Contax RTS II ( or Yashica FR I ) - Rollei Infrared (for a DIY reversal process)

My lightweight gear (for travelling) :
Contax IIIa - Fomapan R100
Contax IIa - Ektachrome E100

My very lightweight gear :
Rollei 35 TE - Fomapan R100

My special gear:
Canon New F-1 (with FD 35mm f/2.8 Tilt/Shift) - Fomapan R100

As long as a film is not yet completely exposed, I use to keep it in the camera, even for many weeks and even the Infrared ones.

 

[Pioneer]

Just my LX but I do have several 4x5 and 8x10 film holders loaded so not sure if that counts or not.

 

[bags27]

Someone else shooting this chunky wonder!

Mine is loaded with Tri-X. I'm trying to relive my youth - it was my first SLR at the age of 14.

Presently loaded (this is embarasing):

Exakta/Exa 500 - Tri-X
Nikon FM2 - Technical Pan
Nikon F3 - Ektar 100
Nikon F2 - TMax TMZ 3200
Nikon N75 - Portra 400
Yashica T4 Super/T5 - TMax TMX 100
Yashica T4D Super/T5D - Portra 400
Yashica 635 TLR - Old Arista 125 (Ilford FP4)
Zeiss Nettar 6x6 - Rollei IR

You're my new idol!

I think it should. At least sheet film doesn't get a curl that causes focus issues when left loaded for a long time. I probably have 8 4x5 holders (i.e. 16 sheets), 3 5x7, 3 8x10, and two 2x3 grafmatics (6 sheets each). Then a Pentax MX, and a 6x9 roll film holder mounted in a Horseman Convertible. Work has been a bit killer so when I go out I've been shooting *******, but not even unloading the files onto the computer.

 

[Paraframe]

3 out of 4.5 working cameras,

Mamiya 645 loaded with Kentmere 100 with 3 exposures remaining.

Zorki 1e loaded with Fomapan 400 with 6-8 exposures remaining.

Kiev 4AM loaded with Kentmere 100, no exposures taken yet.

No film in my Olympus OM-G though it's usually loaded with ultramax 400 or gold 200 and no film in my Yashica Electro 35 because the leaf shutter is suspect and I need to clean it.
