How Many Cameras do you Own?

[Horngreen]

Apart from collecting them why would anyone want several cameras?

OCD.

 

[Hickeydog]

I own a T2i.


And that's it.

Do you really use those old cameras?

I use them as often as I can, yes.

You need some TLR's in that collection.

 

[BlairWright]

only 8... out of the 8 three are film bodies, three are DLSR's, one is a Micro 4/3, and the last is a decent pocket cam - I'm not counting cell phones as they are not cameras, they are phones with cameras in them.

I know, but they're so damn expensive.

How many do I own, or how many do I tell my wife I have?

I'll have to add another to the list! I just bought a Kodak Euro-35 Legend. I bought it purely because of its pastel pink shutter and advance wheel and the pastel green rewind knob, film release and 'back opener'. It's awesome cool.

I also got a Praktica 1600A flash that matches my Praktica PLC2 and BC1!

Everything is in perfect working order by the way! Picked them up for £1 (~$1.60) the pair.

I have 8 digital cameras, 8 Canon FD film cameras, 8 Canon EOS film cameras and a few oddball ones.

Why more than one camera? I only use digital cameras these days, the film ones are either original ones I bought or replacement ones as collectibles, memories of cameras past, or were given to me.

I have a Canon XSi DSLR with 7 lenses, but use my Canon superzoom SX30 most of the time because of its portability. I keep a Pentax Optio Z10 in the car for found photos, and use a pocket sized Sanyo one when I don't have room to carry anything bigger. I bought copies of my two first digital point and shoot models (1.3 & 3.3MP) just as collectibles; I don't use them. In the past few weeks I've acquired a Nikon superzoom P80, which is smaller than my SX30, mainly because of the price - $10.00; something I could not pass up.

Cameras are fun!

A couple of 8x10's, six 4x5's, three roll-film SLR's, two roll-film TLR's, which all get used. And no 35mm or digital whatsoever.

Sheesh... I can't count them right now, they're boxed away for moving but I can estimate at about 150, all formats from Minox B and Steky B to 4x5 Linhoff, with a few Hasselblads and Leicas in between. LOL

I must've had over 800 or so cameras during my collecting years.

I jut started collecting in January. Here is my list:
-Kodak Brownie No. 2 model C

A small list compared to the first post, but hey, I just started. I am always looking for new cameras, and my collection is growing all the time.
