*This is NOT a showing off exercise... rather it is to see what people shoot with, why and what they would like to experiment with next*

As some of you might had guessed, I'm primarily a Canon digital shooter (EOS 20D with too much cheap glass). I also shoot in film on my older Canon EOS300... but more recently, I'm shooting on a Holga (a cheap plastic medium format camera)

With the EOS's, I get the flexibility I want with a big system like that... but with the holga, I get the unpredictability that's removed from most modern cameras today. Plus it makes me think more when taking a pic...

Next steps: probably another canon, but I might get a medium format Bronica next... just for the fun of shooting an image.

So what about you?

(Edited for a silly mistake and spelling)

Color shots are Canon PowerShot A95. B&W are Canon Rebel 2000. Just a matter of actually letting go of the cash before I get a Canon XTi, but I'm procrastinating because I don't have time to shoot with it right now anyway.

Taking my first photography class, have to do all film, all B&W.

I still work in black and white film (with the classic 12 minutes develop, water stop, 4 minutes fix, 20 minute wash and pray), then spending the next week or so getting the print right (I did this during my photography classes last year - we did film, digital, and then whatever we wanted)

Admittedly, there is still nothing than the satisifcation of processing a film yourself... and realising that the negatives are good, and not fogged, damaged and haven't curled up too much

the specifics of what people are using here are interesting to me.

I use a mamiya twin Lens reflex (medium format)
love it - have been slowly piecing together a Hasselblad over the years also.
nikon f & nikon n90 - mostly a 28mm lens lately
4X5 pinhole camera (leonardo wide pinhole with a 545 polaroid back)
color slide film= cibachromes
and lots of tri-x - process/print etc. my own b&w

digital : panasonic lumix

I shoot mostly with a Nikon D50 but I'm having a horrid time getting anything at night with no flash and it's also a little bit of a pain walking about with a chunky DSLR dangling in front of me. So I tend to use my mobile (Sony K800i) quiet a lot which goes everywhere with me.

Debbie got a Panasonic Lumix FZ-7 last year when I got the D50 but doesn't like it at all so she's gone back to using her Nikon Coolpix 3200. I think the Nikon must focus faster, Debbie isn't into wasting time with composition or pressing the shutter release half way down to focus.

I tried using the manual settings on the D50 once, by the time I'd got the shot, Debbie was half a mile down the road taking picture number 256!

Paul.

Canon 400D, my walk-around zoom is EF-S 17-85mm IS USM.
Also have a EF 100mm f.28 MACRO.

I love my pair of lenses, 17-85 fits most of my everyday use. The MACRO lens is great, real sharp, focusing is a little slow, but hey, what else do you expect from a macro lens? In fact, I rather enjoy manually focusing with my 100mm.

Can't afford an L lense just yet, plus I think I need a flashgun before that, furthermore, I am eyeing up the EF-S 70-300mm DO IS USM.

when I plan to take pictures I use my canon digital rebel, but I most often use a canon sd40... it's so tiny I always have it with me (love that little thing)

I shoot mostly with my Nikon N80 and D50, and also my Canon Powershot A620. My usual lens is either the Nikon 50mm 1.8 or the Sigma 17-35 2.8...which isn't as wide as it used to be on my 35mm SLR.

For fun I shoot some older cameras, Agfa Isolette and an Ansco box camera, both medium format. I also have a Russian Smena 8m 35mm that I have been neglecting lately.

Well, I just recently started shooting photos. I've been a graphic artist for around six years, so many of the same principles transfer over. Looking at some of the galleries here can be a little intimidating for a beginner.

I'm currently shooting with a 6mp Casio Exilim (EX-Z60). It's a credit card type point and shoot job, but I've learned how to trick it into producing the photos I want.

Snapshot photography is my favorite.

I have been shooting with a new digital for the last month - Canon Digital Rebel XTi. I still love and use my Canon Elan 7e for film. I really miss the eye-based focus of the 7e on the DR. I wish they'd included it.

I use a Canon EOS 20D

I'm shooting with a Canon Digital Rebel 300D. I've got a 18-55mm, 75-300mm and my favorite...50mm.

I love it

So what are you shooting with?

With hopeful anticipation I get a great shot or two..!

Nikon D70 with 18-70mm, 28-300mm
Nikon F75 with 28-100mm (Generally B+W and Transparency)
Canon Powershot A630
Pentax SF7 (not used in years)

Ah yes... Hope.

The one thing we all shot with.. and luck too ;)

I use a d70s with the kitlens 35-70mm and a sigma 70-300mm 1:4-5.6 APo
The sigma does the job but i really long till I can afford buying something with much faster af..
I'm really happy with the kitlens though.
kitlens plus my SB-800 always makes my day when I'm down =)

the mobilecamera or my nikon coolpix3500 sometimes come in handy too..

Analogic with Canon EOS 500, but since couple of months its stopped since i bought digital Casio EX-Z750, and saving money for Nikon D80. In the meantime i've stolen brother's Canon 20D

I recently got a Nikon D80 with an 18-200mm lens, which I use for everything. I wouldn't mind getting my hands on a super-wide lens like the 12mm, that or a fisheye. So far, the Nikon's performed well.

I use a Nikon D200 with a Sigma 24-70 f2.8 (not too bad, but not great either) and a Nikkor 50mm f1.8 (which is fantastic, every Nikon users should have one).

I also have a Velbon Sherpa tripod and a kinda DIY studio light.

Also Gaffa Tape. This is one of the most important things you can have for doing still lives.

The classic 50mm lens...

Small light, and works a lot of the time. Also cheap as chips

(and yes ... I have the Canon equivalents... my cheap as chips studio lens)

It's in my profile, but I'll go into more detail here.

I own 4 cameras total, and I'll go through them in the order I bought them.

Kodak EasyShare Z740
It was my first camera, and as a learning camera its really great, but as far as things go, I've largely outgrown it. I do still use it for NIR photography, its IRCF isn't as good as my other cameras, so it lets more NIR light through. So most NIR pictures I take are with this camera.

Kodak EasyShare V570
This is my pocket camera. Its a fully auto P&S camera, and form is more important than function with this camera. Its really tough getting a tricky shot off, but its about the size of my cell phone. Its my carry around camera, and it means I am never kicking myself for not brining my camera with me. Its unconventional appearance also means a lot of people don't even know I'm photographing stuff.

Kodak EasyShare P880
This is my landscape camera, its 24 mm wide angle lens is great for a lot of the stuff I shoot. Its a bridge camera, so I can shoot raw, I can add my accessory flash if I want to, and its compatible with all of my add on lenses and filters I bought for my Z740.

Panasonic DMC-FZ50
I bought this camera to replace my Z740, and its goes along with me when I go any place with the intention of taking pictures. It too is a bridge camera, and its a dream to shoot with. When I am serious about my pictures, you'll usually find me with my P880 and my FZ50 slung under each shoulder. Its got a 12 power zoom lens with O.I.C.

As for DSLR cameras, I don't own any. Sometimes when I see some guy with a big Canon with a lens the size of a trash can I get a little envious, but in my mind I like the bridge cameras. They are cheaper, and have more adaptable lenses. Although they have some draw backs, I can live with them. I can't imagine myself changing my equipment anytime soon. Looking at the pictures I take and the cameras I have, I like where I am.
