    I'm working on something a little different for people's photography.... I'm looking to find out what people's favourite film camera ever is. Yes film only.
    Your most loved, iconic, beautiful, greatest camera ever. Tell me please!

    Doenst matter... The one that you think is the creme de la creme of cameras, the holy grail so to speak. Desired or owned if you happen to have what you is thé camera of cameras.

    Years ago I did most of my college project on an Olympus 35Sp and was broken hearted when someone "borrowed" it and then had it stolen when away. They never even told me until I enquired of its whereabouts and they shrugged it off as "one of those things." Families!!!!
    It was my father's camera so it had a lot of sentimental value, as well as practical value for college. I have ordered a new one recently on eBay and am expecting it any day now. Can't wait, it was (and still is) a great camera.
    My second choice would be the OM-1n that I bought as a replacement and used that for the remainder of the course. Even though I use Nikon now (film and digital), the 35Sp has always been special . . . can't wait for the delivery.

    Rolleiflex 2.8A TLR with 80mm Carl Zeiss f2.8 taking lens. Handles 120 (6x6) negs or 35mm with an adapter kit. I learnt most of what I know about photography with that.
