I didn't see how long this was when I started watching. Ended up watching the whole thing all the way through. You must have worked long and hard on the editing. Your channel has quickly become one of my favorite photography channels. Even though you have robbed me of my sleep with your thoroughly entertaining video, I just wanted to say thanks. I guess I will get all the sleep I need when I'm dead😉.

@@OneMonthTwoCameras All your images are of family... anyone that watches you will be comfortable with family being at the centre of what you do, many of are the same! My daughter or aspects of my daughter or where I am with my daughter describes all my images of the last decade. Anyone can log off, if the powerful images and fascinating story are not of their liking. Why Tahiti? Is your Dad French? Did he go for health reasons, family, love of Gauguin? We need to know! plus... leave the photos up for a fraction longer!!! Plus, the bonus will be a video made with every detail fresh in your mind, which might not be the case in twenty or thirty years time when your daughters ask, tell us about that trip you made to see Grandpa... Also... where is the channel going next? I think you are already tiring of the strict format you gave yourself. The video I just watched (which I watched every second of, it was, in an hour, my GAS and prevarication of the last twenty years!!) more or less draws a line under it, no? Surely now, we learn more about hubby, the fascinating Dad, the trips (a la Grainy Days), you job (are you a stylist?) shaping things for an image.

@OneMonthTwoCameras 2 года назад

So incredibly true. It's incredible what these older cameras are capable of.

@key2adventure Год назад

Fun to see your complete collection of cameras and hear your reasoning as to which to keep. I guess I have around three times as many cameras as you started out with in this video, but I have projects with almost all of them, like panoramic images directly in the camera, shooting APS film in 2023, half format used to tell stories, and so on. So I’ll keep almost all of my cameras.

That was intense, haha! I’m still very happy with my Olympus XZ-1. You and Hashem sold me on it, and I couldn’t be happier. It gives me just enough of that film feeling, look, and limitation. The colors from the cvs sensor are killer. It is always with me when I leave home!

Great video, thankyou. A real walk down memory lane with some of those compact digital cameras. I had so many of those over the years. Still have my (original) Canon G7, Lumix LX3 and the Fuji F30. Nice to see a movement towards the look of the files and creative aspect which i guess is what photography is about. I have modern, state of the art cameras and i can be caught up in the race of megapixels and iso performance. Thanks to channels like yours and Martin Castein, it’s refreshing to re-examine what’s important.

@BenjaminBS Год назад

Thank you for sharing. I can soooo identify. Your approach of presenting the cameras is so refreshing, way beyond the bla bla of sensor size and bokeh. I also had some of your cameras, the Oly E-300, Canon 5d and it all started with the Minolta Z-1. I think every camera has an image-language of its own that makes it worth keeping/using. Today I have the Olympus E-3,E-5, OM-D Em1, Canon 5D, Nikon D850, and just last week I shot a family event with the E-5....that was almost a bad idea for when night falls, the E-5 is struggeling. But the feel of the camera is so nice.

@MichealSeaghdha 2 года назад

Your revised target of just under twenty is sensible in my book. Anything more ruthless in one go would have caused you pain and regret and the whole point of photography is to give you joy, which it obviously already does. You explained very clearly what you love about your many cameras and that is how I feel about my smaller collection - each body is slightly different and provides a unique and rewarding experience in its own particular way. When I'm reacquainted with any one of them I feel I'm embarking on an exciting new journey of discovery.

@OneMonthTwoCameras 2 года назад

You capture that beautifully. Each camera truly does fulfill its own purpose and I find that keeping them in rotation revives the inspiration whenever it might flag.

@snappiness 2 года назад

Took me a couple breaks to get through this, but totally worth nerding out with you! There are some awesome cameras in your collection. I'm at the same point, though quite a bit less cameras still getting overwhelming and no way I can properly use them all. Several cool overlooked cameras on my same list to try one day - konica minolta 5d, Fujfilm S Pro, Sony R1 - Some rare ones like that panasonic L1 (I've been watching that on eBay for a while, they don't pop up often!) The bridge Olympus cameras are also totally on my list. I had to double check just now I didn't already have one, that's how close I've come to pulling the trigger several times. Sad your Minolta Dimage EX Zoom 1500 doesn't work, that is a weird camera I want to try just to show it off in 2022 and beyond. I've bought and sold countless cameras over the years, and I think the only one I regret selling was my Olympus Pen FT! So glad to see you're keeping it. Even though I don't shoot a lot of film, I still regret selling it. Can't remember my other thoughts. It was fun watching though and seeing some of these cool cameras. I think the ones you ended with were a good choice :)

@OneMonthTwoCameras 2 года назад

@cliffterpher 2 года назад

I recently picked up an Olympus E20 after seeing your review. Love it. The feel, the fast lens, the zoom range. However is it just my copy or did you find it consumes batteries like a small Northern town in winter?

@@cliffterpher I can't speak specifically to the E20 as I actually haven't shot that camera but knowing these old cameras, I would flag the question of whether you are using alkaline or lithium batteries. You'll be s$#& out of luck if they're alkaline; these old cameras will only get you longevity of any sort if you use lithium the rechargeable NiMH variety (my preference is the latter with something like the Eneloop AAs)

This is such a breath of fresh air in the modern era of photography. Ibe wanted to get a “nice” camera for a long time. Got myself a Olympus TG-6 at a great deal for a travel camera. This video only reinforces the idea of have a camera with you and shoot pictures that make you happy! To see you pick up the early point and shoots and say this is a killer camera and tak it’s praises ignores the modern era of photography. It’s not always about specs and the newest or most expensive but it’s about the journey that the camera captures. I’ve been looking up almost every camera on eBay to see the availability😂 love this video!

I also love the Nikon D40 (it was my first “real” camera) and enjoy the Instax SQ6. I have 50 in my collection, and love them all: mostly little crap-tastic point and shoots, and any cheap panorama camera I can find (yep, the fake masked ones), with a sprinkling of Lomography and toy/effect and Holga and a few digital. I too am a fan girl of Olympus, and Minolta! I quite enjoyed your film, your trip down memory lane, and your knowledge of cameras. I can’t wait to dig into your other films!! Thanks for sharing!

This was actually such a nice video to listen to while I edit photos, but I was constantly tempted to look as there were so many nice shots and though they were not compared, your description of each camera experience was heart warming. I dont know how you afforded all of that, but then again all of my gear is pricey too. I love small Olympus m43 lenses but I love my big chunky Zuiko lenses too. My Sony loves my large aperture Sigmas so much, my back does not. My X100 gathers dust and is too slow and unreliable for AF, but made such an impact on my shoots. My Fujifilm S5 pro made me see real colours again, oh those raw files, but my batteries are dead for it. My Canon 5D2 has laser damage and my 40D is just eaten with time only serviced once. My dad gave me his old Chinon m42 camera, still havent shot a frame yet. Its tough living on an island in the Indian ocean... to sell... to buy.

@yurivv69 2 года назад

Great video! I found your channel by accident and saw your video about the Olympus E-300 camera, which I bought right after your review purely for the design (and then loved the photos it gives out). After that, I watched a few more of your videos, because I noticed that I share a lot of your perception of photography. You have an extremely interesting collection, and I also have several similar examples, such as the Canon PowerShot Pro 1 (unfortunately, both of my cameras are broken), as well as eight Olympus Camedias, from the C2020Z to the C8080WZ. My main digital camera is Sigma SDQH and I had 10 cameras with a Sigma Foveon sensor (and now have four of them), one of them, DP2 Merrill, I bought twice. I think it would be a bit of a pity to reduce such a great collection. By the way, the name of the Soviet camera is "Moskva" - that's how we pronounce Moscow in Russian.

@davidbeaton6506 5 месяцев назад

Great video. Funny how life can go full circle. I'm in my early 70's and ex-military. In my early photography (film) phase I acquired an OM1 (which I took to war with a 50mm as the most reliable and most simple set up I could take) and later added the OM2 and OM4 with a bunch of lenses. The camera bag became heavier than my military rucksack so never went anywhere and I needed both hands for herding children and dogs. So I took it all along to a nearby camera store and asked what the best quality small camera they had and I traded my whole kit for a Fujifilm DL Super Mini. Spectacular 28mm lens and easily pocketable. I can't remember if there was any cash adjustment either way. A family member who was a professional fashion photographer later told me this was also the camera he used as a behind the scenes back-up to his pro gear because of the lens and small size so I felt vindicated! Time has passed, retired, children flown, grandchildren in a different country etc etc and gradually and without planning began the gear collection doom cycle again with Fuji X100T, Sony RX100 M1 and VI, Ricoh GR II and guess what? - another heavy bag now full of OMD EM1.2 a whole bunch of pro lenses, a bad back and much reduced likelihood of travel for photography sake! Your video is a timely reminder to prune the most recent collection and get down to one (or maybe two?) portable options either the RX100 Vi and/or the GR II. I suspect I will be selling another bag full of stuff in a few years but hey that's life! Thanks again!

Also, I have Nikon Df. Given your interest in gorgeous, unique sensors, I’d recommend trying it if you get the chance. ISO can go crazy high and it’s still clean. I feel like I’m running counter to the spirit of this video, but there are just so many great cameras to explore!

@OneMonthTwoCameras 2 года назад

Oh I have had the DF on my list for ages! Keep hoping it will come down in price but the demand and price seem to remain high. I was one bid away from winning one from Hawaii not long ago but just missed out by a fraction of a moment. That was a heartbreak but I continue to keep my eye out.

@sergiodematostube Год назад

@@OneMonthTwoCameras I also have a DF since it came out and I can't part with it. I've also dabbled with many cameras Sony's like the RX1, A7RII (for some reason I love the Nex 7, owned 3 in my life time) , Olympus, Pentax, even the Leica Q etc. mainly mirrorless, but I always find myself loving my DF even more after trying so many cameras, It's one of those cameras I just can't part with I love shooting it with the 28mm 2.8 Ais and the 50 series E 50mm 1.8 because it's basically a pancake

@NWPipeSmoker 2 года назад

Fun! I started collecting Pentax 645 lenses to use with adapters with my Sigma SD Quattro, but found some odd color cast (green) with the Foveon sensor. I found a good used 645Z thinking *that* would be my last camera (my, don't we fool ourselves) but surprising to me didn't care for the SLR viewfinding, and the 645-A film-era lenses were generally not sharp enough to my eyes that were jaded by Sigma Art glass. My favorite so far is the Sigma fp (just picked up another used one). You're brave to sell your babies! -Tom

@OneMonthTwoCameras 2 года назад

Oh interesting! I noticed the same green cast issue when adapting lenses to my SD Quattro. Talk to me about the FP. What do you like about it? It's not a Foveon sensor if I recall correctly?

@luaPevitisoP Год назад

Bummer I came across this just now - would love to claim dibs on a couple of the ones you decided to sell. I am such a hoarder I have collections of collections (cameras, music gear, vinyl…) We share a lot of similar thoughts on these cameras, too. I love the Panasonic LX (and Leica D-Lux) series, too. The in-camera B&W is just so stellar (and having owned both Leica and Panny variants of each, it’s not really different). Shooting vertical 16:9 is also very fun and a great compositional challenge. Plus being a masochist, I’ve used it for off-camera flash work, too hahaha. Glad you’re keeping the LX3 - the extra little bit of wide angle width vs the newer versions is really nice.

@fosterb300 2 года назад

About 3/4 of the way through, your camera collection is such a vast array of awesome equipment. My collection consists of the Nikon Z7, Pentax K1, Pentax KP, Olympus EM10 II, LX100II, Fuji Finepix Pro S2, Minolta 7D, Pentax Q, Konica C35, Yashica Electro GSN, Olympus Pen D2, Pentax 6x7, Yashica LM TLR aka the '59 OG before the Mat line of models, Pentax MZ-S, Pentax K1000, Nikon N65, Nikon EL2, Minolta X700, Minolta XG-M, Yashica Fx D Quartz, Pentax Zoom 105R, and Canon Snappy Tx Macro... The broken and working on fixing lineup consists of a Miranda Sensorex, Zenit MT-1 (M42 mount half frame), and a Minolta 5000. I thought I owned alot of gear until now lol. Also, my biggest regret for selling the Nikon Df, there's something about the colors of that sensor that just are chefs kiss.

@OneMonthTwoCameras 2 года назад

Whoa! That is an amazing collection you have there! I am eager to try that Nikon DF and I've kept that on my list but have yet to find a steal. When I do, it will show up on this channel.

@jasonqian Год назад

Yeah, having a collection of digital cameras would, over time, certainly end up like owning a lot of high tech toys gone obsolete, which does not mean we cannot extract so much fun from it. One camera that did not show up in your presentation but I like is the Olympus C-8080 Wide Zoom, which I've owned it since new and still considered it to be among the best even to this day. It has 8 megapixels, with a top quality zoom lens and the pictures come out so beautiful that you would be amazed it's from an 18 year old model. Apart from a bit slow in focus, low iso and a heavy body, it has no major drawback to be found even today.

@OneMonthTwoCameras Год назад

I confess this camera has been on my list! I have a photographer I used to be obsessed with who shot the C8080 when it came out. Thanks for reminding me to get a eye out there for one again.

I knew about the D700 sensor, but I was not aware, or maybe Was aware the Nikon D7200 had a different Toshiba sensor, but didn’t make the connection with the D700. I switched a few years ago when Minolta (had several high end Minolta film bodies then went digital: Konica/Minolta 7d, Sony a700) eventually became Sony, and Sony was on the leading edge in mirrorless cameras. Not anything I wanted to be part of. Ironically, I switched to Nikon my first being a nearly new Nikon D7000. Loved it! Started doing Nikon research and decided on the D700. Best decision I could make! Next was the D300s, and then the D3. Add the D700; the holy trinity of that generation of Nikons that hold up in spades today. I was reading and seeing excellent things with the Nikon D7200. No Low pass filter, and learned has one of those magic sensors. All extra ordinary cameras! I also picked up a Nikon D610, a Nikon you have to understand to use well, but also has some Nikon processing magic under the hood. Very happy with my legendary Nikons. With the help of eBay and other online stores I’ve picked up relatively inexpensively a D70, D40, D50, D60. Love the CCD camera look. Planned on reselling the CCD cameras, but all but the D50 are on my shelf. I have the itch again and want a Canon 5D classic.

@mikevilensky6985 2 года назад

I can completely understand your sighing when holding your C5050. I have the same feelings for my C5060. I love this camera dearly, but cannot do anything with it. 15 years ago it was my mini E-1 which also used the same batteries. But now I still use E-1, not C5060

@Ectica 2 года назад

@lim9571 2 года назад

There are so many cameras on your list I would love to try. Your review on the E300 got me into the four thirds system. I can empathize as I get stressed out when I have more than about 10 cameras. The problem is you aren't able to use any camera enough. However, I try and get cameras to fulfil specific criteria e.g. Retro fun: Olympus E1, E330 Canon G5 Low key and competent: Canon S120 Do everything (albeit averagely): Lumix TZ90 Interchangeable lens Olympus EM10 II and a bunch of lenses

@OneMonthTwoCameras 2 года назад

@christopherbgriffith 2 года назад

Sorry for all the separate comments - I'm chiming in as I progress through the video. :D Totally correct that the Lumix 20mm f/1.7 is one of the best lenses ever. Fast, accurate, razor sharp, beautiful bokeh, weighs nothing. It's a marvel. I had an SD Quattro (APS-C) and while I have a handful of amazing images from it, I always struggled to bring the images my eye saw to life with it. I'm glad for the time I spent with a Foveon sensor, but I was glad to re-home it. I will say though - probably in the Top 3 best camera grips of all time. I'm bummed you don't like the X100V very much. While Fujifilm stuff is my "main" setup, I'm hardly a fanboy and I'm glad there are lots of choices out there. The main reason I got into it was for the more "analog" control setup; aperture rings and the like. That said, if Nikon releases a Zf (FF mirrorless version of the Df), I will probably switch to that.

@OneMonthTwoCameras 2 года назад

I've always wanted to try the OG Nikon DF. Still on my list of eventual purchases but yes, it would be awesome to see them come out with a mirrorless version as well. And I don't mean to hate on Fuji. I actually shot Fuji exclusively for about 3 years and got some my favorite shots out of the system and the X100V is crazy good. I just seem to gravitate to these weirder more niche and imperfect cameras and files as they have a lot of personality that modern cameras have engineered out of their modern technical marvels. That said I am really impressed with how good the camera is even if it's not the first one I find myself wanting to pick up.

@frankwilliamson1208 Год назад

Wow, what a huge collection!! It's much tougher to experiment with digital than film, eh lol. I'd be curious to know what your favorite (pocketable) digital point and shoots are for capturing color + light w/decent-ish quality? I know this era of cameras probably had less breadth and depth as the major camera companies got whittled down to 3 or 4.

The Sophies Choice of camera gear! I both applaud and cry (not literally) watching this, and I sometimes (never?) wish I could do the same with my 113 digital and 41 analog cameras, plus some 245 lenses and 100 bags. Just realising you probably have a more healthy and sound take on camera collecting... Of course I also sell a lot, but new (old) things just keep coming in. My idea, in short, is to e.g. buy three, sell two for that same price, and keep one for free. That way the collection pays for itself. Kind of... Well, I hope you're not completely done hoarding. You know, photography isn't all about the picture. It's also about compiling a stupid amount of units you don't need, almost never use, that torment your soul, induce guilt and shame, and occupy the room that the baby should have had 😬🤓

Maybe it fits so good in my hands, or because it's my first 35mm camera. If you ever plan to shoot with that Minolta, please use some of their expansion cards, I would love to see some effects of it.
