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

[Huss]

Nikon F2AS w/ E100G; Nikon F6 w/ E100VS; Leica M6 w/HP5+.

I like the cut of your jib. Swap that M6 for an MP and you'd be set.


Right now F3P w/ Lomo Babylon
Pentax SuperA w/ Kodak ProImage
Rollei A110 w/ Fukkatsu 400
Rolleiflex 2.8E Planar with Arista 200

 

[LeftCoastKid]

Currently just two cameras are loaded: F5 w/E100G and an M6 w/HP5+. Heading back into downtown Vancouver tomorrow early am with F5 (loaded as indicated and with a few additional rolls of E100G/VS) and w/ 28/50/85/180mm lenses) and an M6 w/ 28 Summicron and 50 Asph (and more HP5+). By weekend's end my supply of PB 01/14 should be exhausted; and time for a B&H/Adorama replenishment.

 

[Pitotshock]

I have to admit that none have film in them. I usually finish the roll when I load it, and I want the choice of the day when I set out, fast or slow; B&W or colour; which camera I feel like picking up. 36 frames only lasts a few minutes... Besides, I feel like a kid in a candy store when I get to play with a roll of freshly developed negatives on the enlarger. Why wait for months to get to see?

Next Leica will most likely be an M4...

So- I know a lot of you have lots of cameras- how many have film ready to go?
I have 8 bodies I use often and have 4 loaded right now... should probably finish them off- some have been in the camera for nearly a year

none; Ionly load film just before shooting.

 

[Disconnekt]

Got my Pentax ZX-L loaded up with some expired Fujichrome Sensia 200.

 

[cjbecker]

F3hp e100
A12 e100
Grafmatic foma 200

 

[DNH]

18 loaded.

Madness

 

[RokkorZ]

Too many cameras, but only use one at a time. Currently have Velvia 50 in a Nikon F90x.

 

[TheFlyingCamera]

Not so much loaded this instant, but in the camera bag and ready to shoot? RZ67, Rolleiflex, Lomo LC-A 120, Lomo Belair X6/12, Holga 120N, and the Sinar Norma 5x7 is set up and ready to shoot. Might even get the itch to put a red filter on my Contax RTSIII and burn some infrared over the weekend.

 

[George Mann]

Nikons, F2 with Delta 100, F90x with Ektachrome E100, EL with Fujicolor 200.

 

[Black Dog]

My Olympus Trip and my Pentax MV, both loaded with Lomography Lady Grey 400.

 

[Mamulcahy]

Nikon FE and F3. FE has Fuji Superia and F3 has Tri-X.

 

[Andrew O'Neill]

Had a few holders loaded with HP5 yesterday. Converted my busted Travelwide 4x5 for pinhole work. f/240. Turned out quite well except for a bit of the flocking cutting off one corner. Not sure why they put flocking material there, as the inside of the conical is matte black already. Ripped it out and Bob's yur uncle!

 

[Helios 1984]

Contaflex IV w/ TMAX 100

 

[AnselMortensen]

I don't keep roll-film cameras loaded...if I did, I guarantee it would be the wrong film when I went to use it.
(When my ship came in, I'd be at the airport)

That being said, I do have 10 4x5 film holders loaded with TMax 100.

Loaded with the wrong film? Change the film back.

Hard to do with a 35mm roll-film camera.

 

[Sirius Glass]

Hard to do with a 35mm roll-film camera.

And that is why I always carry two 35mm cameras, one with color and one with black & white, with interchangeable lenses when I am using 35mm cameras.

 

[Huss]

zero. In the middle of a move so I have to make do with a ...tal camera in the meantime. When I shoot film, I don't like it sitting around when I'm done!

 

[mrosenlof]

two.

F2 with TX
M5 with TMX

 

[Pioneer]

Right now I have three.

2x3 Baby Graflex - Ilford HP5+
Leica M-A - AEU 400
Leica IIIa - AEU 400

Just finished a roll in my Ikoflex IIa and my Wanderlust Travelwide with a Graphic 23 a couple of days ago.

 

[benjiboy]

I have three cameras loading at the moment, because I'm trying to reduce the amount of cameras I have loaded.

 

[Donald Qualls]

Loaded with the wrong film? Change the film back.

I don't know how to do that with my Moskva 5, Mamiya Six folder, Daiichi Zenobia, Welta Weltini, or even my Kiev 4, Ricoh Singlex TLS, or Nikkormat FT2.

I have that capability with my RB67, but it weighs almost as much (with a couple extra lenses and viewfinders) as all of the above cameras combined. And the 120 backs I have that fit it are all different formats -- 6x7, yes, but also 6x4.5, 6x6, and even 6x9 (leaves some space between frames, but it works). I do have an RH10, that would let me shoot 6x7 with different film as long as I remember it doesn't activate the dark slide interlock...

I have a rule, never have loaded film. Otherwise here too it will wrong film or worse wrong.
With 35mm that's why I bulk load or even split 36 exposures canisters in 2 or 3 smaller ones. Also why my preferred 35mm SLR are the Exacta and the KMZ Start: they have a knife. Also why I carry a changing bag (provides extra cushion packed tight at the bottom of the camera bag) and small scissors, because rule can be violated when in a hurry or distracted or when the weather changes fast, so I may need by mid-canister to shot at 800 or 1600 but one hour earlier i loaded a 100 canister and took few first shots like that because there was sun.
I always have the dark bag, have used it with 35 SLR, RF, 120 folding, 120 SLR, 4x5 holders and I am buying an extra large one for 8x10.

the other day I was to load 8x10 holders, grab one, removed the dark slide for routine cleaning/checking for dust, and ... exposed the sheet that was left inside ... given the price of 8x10 sheets , not smart.... I have a rule for sheet film: always put a chunk of freezer tape to hold the dark slide to the frame, with the name of the emulsion on it, discard the tape when unloading for development. But it seems I forgot and violated that other rule....
