How Many Cameras do you Own?

I honestly don't know how many cameras I've accumulated, lost track after a hundred. Much of it is junk I just found interesting to take apart and tinker with, but there are many nice ones as well. I still like to use the old film cameras, but digital has spoiled me, with the ability to shoot hundreds of images. I'm particularly found of the Contax II and the Voigtlander Perkeo.
 
Currently a total of 5 now.

- One extremely primitive plastic monster from my childhood 30+ years ago that I dont remember ever using.
- A Leica C2 film camera I must have bought sometimes 6-10 years ago ? I dont remember ever using that one, either.

And the three digital cameras mentioned in my profile:
- Panasonic DMC-FX07 (bought it about 4 years ago; I wanted a Leica, but the shop told me its basically the same camera as the Leica, just cheaper; I still use this one as a point and shoot)
- Canon Powershot G11 (bought it about 2 years ago)
- Nikon D5100 (couple months ago). I think I'll switch to Fuji's X System in future, though.
 
I think I'm up to about 70 or 80 at this point. I keep saying to myself that "one of these days, I'll arrange them all for a group shot", but... yeah... lol

Motorola cell phone cam (not used any more, it's my backup phone)
Nokia phone cam (occasional use)
Canon Elph something, unused these last several years
Nikon D3100 used almost daily
Nikon FE2 used several times a year
Mamiya RZ67 used several times a year
Bender 4x5 used probably once a year
Sinar F1 just acquired, hope to use it a couple times a year

What's that, 8? The Bender is going to go if the F1 works out. The Elph should probably go as well.

I am not a collector so I will say I have way too many cameras. Just sign of insecurity ? If one craps out I want to have another one on hand.

Cool! Honestly, I had no idea that any of their digital SLRs started with the D, rather than ending with it. Learn something new every day! Thanks!

There was also a D30... 3.2mp which was my first digital SLR. I went from a D30 to D60 to a 10D and managed to wait until 1DMark IIn

Yep, the D60 in all its 6.2 MP goodness. It only goes up to an unusable 1000 ISO though lol

What sucks (and is kind of ironic) is that the D60 has a PC cord plug in where you can use a strobe, but I don't think any of the xxD series cameras have that. Stupid canon marketing.

I believe that the D30 was the first genuinely Canon DSLR. The others before that were collaborations between Canon and Kodak.
