Following up on my earlier post, I keep records for all my cameras as to whether they have film or batteries installed and when they were last used. I guess it fits my historian/archivist personality.

ay ay ay, let's see.

35mm:
( these are always ready to go, I reload after every roll ):
N2020..... Kodak gold 200
FM2n...... TriX
F3.......... FP4+

120:
This is what I used all summer, and what I've been reaching for lately too:
Zeiss Ercona ii.... Acros with 1 frame left to shoot.

Instant:
"pinholaroid"... FP-100C ( always ready to go )
colorpack iii.....FP-100C ( wish I'd never loaded it, I used it 2 or 3 times and it's been sitting for more than a year since )

7x11:
one film holder loaded with 2 paper negatives

5x7 paper negatives:
( these are always loaded with pre-flashed paper and ready to go whenever I feel like it, all are 1-shot cameras ):
"Goat Rock" coffee can pinhole
"Red Rooster" coffee can pinhole
"Macro" coffee can pinhole

on WPPD I made a silly lunch box pinhole camera... it's loaded but I haven't used it yet.

116:
I've also got pre-flashed paper loaded into 2 Kodak Autographic 1A Jr. cameras. Just sitting there.

A Minox (35 ML or EL) is always loaded and close to hand. I generally load with a variety B&W films, but since I recently started C-41 developing I have been using Fuljifilm 200 or 400.

If I'm going somewhere I'll load up an SLR and use that rather than the Minox.

My Pentax 645N is half-way through a 220 roll of Velvia 50, a Pentax K2 with a few shots of Tri-X left in it, a roll of HP4 in the Kodak Medalist II, and some kind of Fuji Color in the Kodak Advantix Preview. Looks like four at this moment...

5-A12 backs currently loaded for the Hasselblads (2xPanF+, 3xE100G); a part roll of Tri-X in one of the M6s (the other is currently empty); my F6 has a fresh roll of E100G; and an F2AS has a half-roll (17 exposures remaining) of HP5+ (rated at EI 200). So...that makes eight empty Nikon bodies sitting around, awaiting their turn...

A lot of my cameras have film in them and none keeps it for more than a few weeks.

4x Nikon EM
FG
EL2
Nikkormat FTn
Nikon F75
2x Nikon F4

2x OM-2N
5x OM-1
OM-2SP
OM-4

I think it is about it.
All have fresh film, most of it from bulk Fomapan 100 or 200 or 400. Some have Agfaphoto Vista 200.

I am currently travelling with 4 cameras (although one broke so I have to take it off the list). Currently:

Mamiya 6 with HP5+ (alternates with Acros depending on the light)
Holga FN with Tri-X
SX-70 with black and white Impossible film 2.0

Once my FE is replaced (soon) it will probably be loaded with HIE for the remainder of the trip.

Travelling in Europe? Lucky duck!

I have an M5, ZI RF, OM4 and Kiev 4AM all loaded with HP5. The Leica travels with me to and from work while the ZI and the OM4 stay at home and are used for
their strengths. I loaded the Kiev with the intent to post some pictures for the RFF FSU contest but failed to take more than a few frames.

Four - Acros in Mamiya 7, Ilford SFX in Hasselblad, FP4+ in Leica M, few sheets of FP4+ in holders for Sinar F2.

Will load a new-to-me Hexar AF on Monday when it has arrived.

I know there's a roll of Tri-X in the EOS-1n and the Nikon 35Ti. There are three empty film canisters next to my keyboard, though, and I can't figure out for the life of me which is the third loaded camera.

I always seem to have film loaded in several cameras at any one time but my K1000 and M-A are never empty.

None. I found leaving film in the camera turns into a bad habit so I always finish the roll. Even with sheet film, I don't leave them loaded for a long period of time. Load & shoot, & whats left gets the boot.

I've been bad lately and have loaded several and not finished the rolls then loaded something else for a different jaunt and not finished that. So…, I think: Pentax H1a with Hp5+, P645N with Acros, Holga with HP5+ or tri-X, Pentax PZ1p with something color, Hong Mei with something color, and some 4x5 holders. There is also a Polaroid 405 with Fuji FP100C. I actually need to load some more 4x5 holders 'cause I'm planning/hoping to go shoot on Tuesday. Oh, and a little 35mm cheapy thing loaded with 200ASA color for Nate.
I've been trying to get chore-type stuff done so I don't feel guilty for going out in the woods when the weather is nice (and it's been hot lately).

I always load and shoot but this morning I took my Kiev 60 to a local car show. The weather sucked and I only took four shots, and I don't know when I'll get out again so I fired off a fifth blank one because I'm very much against leaving shutters tensioned whether they be leaf or focal plane. Considering the fact that it is a Kiev better safe than sorry.
