MF? I only have the RB as my MF camera - definitely not an everyday carry camera!
in 35mm, I would either take my dads minolta XG-M or my Nikon FG20

Leica M2 or Canon P with Cosina 35mm/2.5 or Canon 35mm /2 the lens choice depending on weather. Single coated on sunny days, multi coat dull.

Was a Pentax Spotmatic or K-1000 for many, many years.
Then it was an Nikon FE or FA with the exquisit 28mm f/2.8 AIS.
Lately, it's an old folder or a ZeroImage 2000 6x6 pinhole camera.

Oddly, if it's a working day, I carry instead 2 disposable cameras. One for color and one for black and white.

But if it's a weekend or holiday, it's an Fm3a with 35mm f/2 along with a 85mm f/1.4. with heaps of film.

leicaflex sl2 unless I decide to go light, then it's usually an M type, or the CL.

Today I carried a couple pinhole cameras with me to the beach, so it depends... but my FM2n is the one I'm the most likely to grab for a walk. An old 6x9 folder is a great compact "grab and go" camera, but right now it's got a light leak problem.

It depends entirely on my mood. Zeiss 521/16 folder w/whatever, tmax 400 or expired Portra VC, Minolta X-370 with tmax 100 or tri-x, or Minolta X-570 with Portra 160 or Ektar. I always shoot color in the X-570 and B&W in the X-370, just so I know what is where.

I never leave the house without a camera, even for a 5 minute walk to the bakery.
If I'm not out to specifically take pictures, it's my trusty Rollei B35, with HP5+.

People always ask me what I'm going to take pictures of. I tell them "whatever gets in my way. Are you planning to call somebody because you are carrying your phone?"

It used to be my minox 35 mb but now the shutter stopped working.

I found a yashica lynx 5000e at my parents with original leather case and all so now that's my everyday carry.
There was some old batteries in it so I just go without the meter for now. A great opportunity to learn sunny 16
My only "problem" is that I prefer 35mm over the 45mm lens on the yashica. However I can get down do 1.8 aperture!

Sofar the shots came out great!
