I have a question for you that has been on my mind for some time....how do you decide which camera to take with you when you want to shoot some photos? If I had your collection, I would probably go mad trying to decide which one to use. I have 12 cameras that I love, and I have often contemplated selling all but one just so I don't have to fight myself to decide which one to take with me. Do you have a favorite or two?
Good question. I read it to my wife and she had a good laugh. I've put film through most of the cameras that I've reviewed just to test them. If I'm going on holidays I'll take my Sony alpha 7 with a couple of adapted vintage lens as my main camera, but always take at least one film camera. I guess my favorite rangefinders to use are my Konica Auto S2, Yashica Lynx 14, Minolta Hi-Matic 9 and Olympus SPn, and if I want to slow down even more my Konica IIa, it feels so beautiful just to hold. If I take an SLR it would probably be my Olympus OM1n. Don't hold me to these though I've just noticed my little Olympus RC looking at me. Cheers, Howard
What a fun little camera you have there, sir.
Hi Christopher. I haven't used it for years.
Time to put a film through it methinks.
Cheers, Howard
Thank you. This brings back memories. I used to have one of these but sold it a few years ago during a clear out of my collection.
Hi. Thanks for the comments.
I'm going to have to thin my collection out soon too.
Cheers, Howard
Thanks, Howard! Malcolm lll
Thanks Malc, see you tomorrow.
