What 35mm film body have

[narsuitus]

During the last two years, the 35mm cameras I used the most were a pair of Nikon N2000 SLRs that I received as a gift from a colleague.

It's a toss up between...
Pentax Spotmatic SP-II
Nikkormat FT-N


I had a brief affair with a beautiful Minolta SRT-102 but, it's over. Great body, fantastic glass...but it was just a summer fling.

35mm: Nikon F6, F5, or F2AS (Soverized, of course), if I'm shooting E100G/VS; F3HP, or F2, if I'm shooting HP5+/Tri-X.
120: Hasselblad 500c/m, regardless. (E100G, PanF+, FP4+, or Tri-X).

My favorite is my Canon EF followed by my Olympus OM 1. Followed closely by my F1n or Canon P or....Thanks for asking, Now I have to decide which I am using tomorrow. Just glad I sold all my Minolta lenses and cameras so don't have to worry about dragging them into this problem. ;o)

The Canon EF sure has a devout following. I think it is the only FD body i have never used.......what type of metering system did it use.?

Nikon FM

The kind that takes any voltage of button batteries which I wish Canon would have done with the rest of its cameras. Hated it since then they gone with so many different types of batteries which killed it for the customers. Most of the times since I've only bought cameras with a battery pack for the AA batteries. Where in this world are you going to find a gas station with 2CR5 or the 123 battery ?

I gravitate to one of my Pentax LXs, often with the 50mm f1.2 lens. Wonderful bokeh at wide apertures.

 

[Anon Ymous]

Olympus OM2s

 

[johnsb2]

EOS-3 for E6, Elan 7/7N for b&w and C41.

 

[fdonadio]

Nikon FM2n.

 

[Jon Buffington]

I rotate through systems but right now, FM2n, fg20 and f90s are the most frequent. Leica M5 is used a lot. When shooting minolta, the xdll and canon, ae-1 or a1 usually. When travelling on vacation though, my canon 7ne as I interchange the lenses with my d******l canon slr.

Edit to add: I shoot my mju, mju II or nikon l35af often when I have it with me on my motorcycle.

This year it has been the Pentax MZ-3 and the ME Super. Both make good companions to the Limited lenses.

(An MZ-5n was in the mix too but it succumbed to the dreaded mirror gear failure.)

 

[E. von Hoegh]

For slr, mainly Nikon F system but a lot of m42 stuff.
For rf, Contax-Kiev and a Canon IIb with Summitar as a distant second.
