What type of cameras do you use for your photography?

I have two Canon cameras and of coure a cell phone (Samsung Z Flip5).

I'm just and amateur trying to learn more about photography. Late to the
game as dslr are not the 1st choice now, with mirrorless cameras.

Look forward to making some friends through photgraphy.

I have a Kodak AZ421 that I am fond of. I bought it for its physical zoom capability as the other camera I normally use, a Fuji A340, is limited in
that regard, and physical zoom works so much better than digital zoom.

The only problem I have had with the Kodak so far is when I suspect the
camera got a little too hot on a trip and the battery swelled up. Had to
stop by a Lowe's and buy a pair of needle nose pliers in order to get it dislodged. Luckily, I had a spare battery.

I also use an Akaso Brave 6+ as an extra dash camera to record my travels.
It can also take photos but I have not used it for that too much. I prefer
the 6+ to the later 7 as Akaso sacrificed some of the picture quality in
order to get an extra viewing screen added to the front of the camera.

I have a Nikon D750 full frame and love it.
I use it with the 24-70mm for general shooting and the 70 - 200mm for my kids hockey.

Years ago, my wife owned a Canon AE1 and took great photos with it. It made it easy
for me to shop for Christmas gifts. I would go to a local pawn shop and buy all kinds of
accessories for it. Filters, lenses, auto winders, etc.

She would take the great photos and I looked like a good husband by finding the perfect
gifts for her :)

Cool. I've never used nikon. For whatever reason, drawn to Canon. So have
two now, and am hardly using them. Need to get out and take some photos.

May you have a wonderful holiday weekend.

Thanks for responding to the question.

What type of cameras do you use for your photography?

Hey there ~ I realize that I am responding to an old post, however I
will plod on :)>

My first camera was a Canon AE-1 that I purchased in 1979. I used it for
5 or 6 years and sold it. I sometimes want to take film photos, so I
purchased another one on Ebay.

I also use a Canon A-1 which my significant other purchased in 1979 and
it still works flawlessly after a CLR from a Canon guy.

I wanted a manual experience so I got a Canon AT-1 from Ebay, and also a
Canon AL-1 QF on Ebay. All of these still work great. Of course I had a
CLR done on all of them.

I purchased a new Nikon D5600 in 2020, and it is a great digital unit.

One last one - I found a Panasonic DMC-Z5 at a flea market for 2
dollars. Didn't have a battery though. I got a battery and charger and
it also works flawlessly.

I have two Canon cameras and of coure a cell phone (Samsung Z Flip5).

I am partial to Canon SLR's!

I'm just and amateur trying to learn more about photography. Late to
the game as dslr are not the 1st choice now, with mirrorless cameras.

I learned with an SLR, so ISO means something to me. I still shoot with
all of my Canon cameras. Creativity is in the eye of the beholder.

Look forward to making some friends through photgraphy.

Nice to meet you. If you are still reading the forums...

Thanks for posting Don. I'm still reading the echo. Quite the collection.

Do you post any of your photos online ? Using some sixel conversion tools; I have some photos on my BBS; that you can see with SIXEL supported terminal like SyncTerm.
