Unfortunately like so many vices they are addictive to the point you can't stop yourself.....i class this vice as mechanoptically therapeutic.... from the loading of the desired film type.....composing and taking the shot.....to developing and seeing the fruits of your labors whether they be good or not so good.....it is a hobby i will never give up as long film is available......i have Digital cameras that give highly sharp photo's and won't knock them but if you want dramatically dynamic black and white master pieces use film where possible . In closing i think it was a nice presentation that gave us a lovely insight to a brilliant hobby.
Great collection I have about 50 film cameras and I can assure you it is a burden lol I aim to size down by a lot, a 15 camera collection sounds nice. Keep up with the good content!
I watched your video on your collection recently and after that I did not feel bad for owning too many cameras anymore haha.Thanks for your comment, this seriously means a lot. Same to you, I am excited for more of your videos to come. :)
Pentax MX a jewel of a camera..it was in the running as a candidate for my first film SLR camera back in 1980. I ended up buying a Nikon FM instead because my brother in law had a Nikomat (Japanese market Nikkormat) FT2 and talked me into Nikon. (no regrets..Nikon FM is a great camera). Since then I acquired the camera collecting bug and now have seven cameras (small collection by collector standards): Nikon F, Nikon FM, Nikkormat FT2, Nikon FG, Pentax Spotmatic, Olympus OM-10, and Fujifilm X100F digital. The Nikkormat, Pentax, and Olympus I picked up for cheap at flea markets. Nikon F and FG via online used camera dealers. The only cameras I've bought brand new at full retail price are the Nikon FM and Fujifilm X100F. Love using all my cameras my favorite film cameras are the Nikon F and FM. The Fujifilm is my 'grab and go/travel' camera.
Frame Limes 😁 Haha nice video, love how these old cameras tend to have great personal stories behind them. Sometimes I also wonder what photos they made for the previous owner(s), and where they travelled.
Exactly, I am wondering the same from time to time! I actually found a box of old photos my father took with this old Synchro box camera I show in the video. That was pretty exciting seeing the world from the point of view of a 10-year old around 50 years ago, can't even imagine what a different life all the other cameras must have had before.
Nice video! Almost forgotten my time shooting analog back in 2005 - 2008. I had some nice rangefinders Konica S3, Yashica Cc 35, Yashica Lynx with a fixed 50mm f 1,4 lens. Very inspiring! Makes me want to go out and shoot film again. Definitly more life in film.
Wow! What a fantastic collection of film cameras - I am especially fond of the Nikon F3 and very jealous that you have not one, but two. By the way, your English is excellent. 👌 (Best wishes from London).
Seagull hat sich an der Yashica orientiert und Yashica wiederum bei der Rolleiflex.. das zeigt sich ja auch am Design sämtlicher TLRs, dass es immer sehr an die Rolleiflex angelehnt ist :D
The Nikon F3 was a camera I wanted since I was a kid and saw a professional using one. I finally found one at a decent price last year and it's one of my favorites.
My first camera was a Premier 35mm, almost a no brand one, almost a toy, but I learned a lot, like not to buy crap! On the side I was learning by myself the tricks of the trade, developing, printing, I even built an Enlarger, and it looked and worked pretty good, my friend heard about that and came over to see what kind of garbage I came up with, but when he lookd at it, he went serious and said: I came to make fun of you, but you left me speechless! 😅 So, when I grew up a little we gather some cash and bought a Pentax ME, which I loved despite the fact that it didn't have aperture control, I had to trick it with Ev + or - ... After that got a Canon AE1... A Yashica-D medium format camera and then I jumped to Digital, with a basic 40D, Nikon d50 and a 7D... After all these years I learned that I had to focus on the final product, not the means... I keep trying, learning, and still don't feel comfortable showing off my pictures, although I get good reviews when I do...
wichersham thanks for your kind words, really appreciate it! :) I was in Japan in 2018, but back than I was not focusing on filming that much unfortunately. As soon as traveling is allowed again I will for sure try some travel vlogging about analog photography! :)
Zorki-4K is a very good Soviet rangefinder. The viewfinder is light, there is a diopter correction. One bad thing is that the viewfinder is round and it's a bit difficult to build a frame.
The Canon AE-1 is a great camera if looked after, if a battery leaks, it is a great paperweight! For me, my fave camera the Zenit B with the Hellios 44 lens, no battery, not complex to use, built like a tank and never let me down ever. Great stories here, you have a new sub.
Great collection! I absolutely love that you shoot most, if not all, of your collection. I’ve amassed a little collection of about 30 cameras in a short amount of time, mostly from friends cleaning out their attic. My goal is to shoot on each one and decide which ones to keep.
Wow, that's an impressive amount of cameras, it must be nice to try them all out and get to know all of their little quirks! :) I find myself picking up some cameras more often than others, but I try to shoot all cameras I get at least once or twice, to see if I enjoy them.
Karin, Love seeing & hearing about your collection. I have a smaller collection, but I have used a qualified camera tech to give them a Clean, Lube and Adjust (CLA). Any analog camera is like a fine watch and about every 6 to 10 years (depending on use & storage) they need a servicing. That Pentax MX came out in the early 1980s because there was a trend to make cameras lighter & easier to handle. The grinding you hear just says find a good tech for a clean & lube. What about cost? Fine cameras need occasional service, things get dry and wear. The labor cost in my opinion is not cheap but worth it if you plan to keep & use the gear. Fungus can be removed with mild dilution of water and very little hydrogen peroxide. Most people tend to use gear until it is worn and beyond repair, and there is choice on what to do. But looking at your collection, finding a good tech is a worthwhile investment. Love what you do and your sample images.
Thanks for your comment and an insight into your experience! The hint with the CLA is also pretty useful, I think it's important to give cameras a good maintenance. For most of the cameras in my collection I am not sure though if the price is worth it, especially with cameras like the Pentax MX that are not as high in value. I have been to a mechanic to get my M6 CLAed, but luckily it was not necessary since everything was working perfectly fine. I might look into a CLA for my Nikon F3 though and check out prices.
@@KarinMajoka Karin, I also have a Pentax Spotmatic SPII, which is not worth that much on the retail market. But I liked the quality, handling and superb Takumar lenses enough to have it overhauled. Yes, technical work by qualified people (and they are becoming rare) is not cheap, but I intend to keep & use this Pentax Spotmatic. I have a Leica M3, which also had a CLA, and it might be easier to defend this cost because it is a Leica with its superb Elmer lens. I just purchased a refurbished Minolta SRT202, a tank of a camera but the quality and superb Rokkor lenses tell me the investment was worth it. I shoot with a Nikon FM2, Mamiya 645 and Nikon D90, sometimes in the past with my studio lights and backdrops to raise money for schools. Whatever the goal, there is something about capturing that image, mood and moment. Film-which relies on us and not a microchip-is especially good at capturing these moments. We all have different goals and ways to value our gear, but reliability and long term use are my chief valuations. Best wishes and best regards to your shooting. As one photo instructor once taught me: “When you can paint with light what Rembrandt did with a brush, you are good shooter.”
Nice video! The Pentax MX is quite easily repaired. Mine was overhauled here in the US, but there are quite a few places in Europe too. The Pentax forums have a current list of these. I briefly had a Contax IIIa and now regret getting rid of it :(
Oh that's good to know, I will check out if I can find something nearby. Thanks for sharing! My Contax IIIa is also gone, but at least I know that it's in very good hands now :)
My first film camera i ever bought is a welta reflekta II. I borrowed my families 35mm cameras before. Kinda yoinked them. But i wanted medium format so i bought the welta.
Regarding your SLRs, particularly the Nikons: I note that you are concerned, rightly, with breakage. Here's a solution: find a Barnack Leica (iiif for example.) It is a fraction of the size and weight of an SLR, you can use it to drive nails, it will not break, and as far as image quality is concerned, it has a Leitz lens. Nuff said. Happy shooting!
I am actually trying to thin out my collection instead of getting new stuff - but I will keep those two in mind in case I stumble upon them one day. Thanks! :)
Great collection of cameras, I too started a couple of years ago and now have about 40 cameras! . I still have a Leica on my wish list and was thinking about the M3 or M6 :)
Hayder Assam thanks for your comment, your collections also sounds pretty interesting! :) Do you have issues to find enough space for those 40 cameras? I believe that people can accomplish anything, so if you want that M3 or M6, one day you will get it for sure! ✌🏼
@@KarinMajoka Yeah I have a problem with storage , most of them are in boxes and a few on display. I like to use all of them and have started documenting them all since we are in lockdown on an instagram account here instagram.com/nibirucameras/
That's a great collection! It's not about 'need' - it's about passion! I currently have 4 film cameras - medium formats Bronica SQ-A and Yashica LM, a 35mm Olympus OM2n and a Pentax Epsio 928 point and shoot. They all have different uses and all get used! It's all about aesthetics, history, the sound and of course the image. I love the 'clunk' of my Bronica - and yes it's my favourite but don't tell the others! Do I need anymore? No. Do I want anymore? Yes! My medium formats are both 6x6 so I want a 6x7! I want to try pinhole photography. The lure of the Leica is strong. I hanker for a Hasselblad 500. And who doesn't love instant! Keep up the fabulous work and beware those frame limes!! Happy New year :)
That comment is so wholesome and spot on! Thanks for your kind words and for making me laugh. I will take your secret about your favorite to the grave, no worries 😬 the SQ-A is also a camera that I find very interesting in 6x6 but a 6x7 camera is also still on my list - strange, how magically the list of cameras to get only getting longer and longer the more cameras I already own... Happy new year and all the best :)
Quite an impressive collection! Really enjoyed listening to you talk about the stories behind each camera. I've accumulated a number of cameras (but not as many as your collection) and I want to sell some of them but I'm also reluctant to do so because of the emotional attachment I have with each of them. Love the SX70. I have one too but it needs a bit of servicing
The Unrecorded Photographer thanks so much for your comment, I really appreciate it! Yes, I know that feeling too well, plus I alway think that I might regret selling a camera in the long term. Hope you‘re fine and have fun with your cameras! :)
@@KarinMajoka After sending the message I went looking and found it! I should have done it before I said it. I also liked these videos. are you usually active on Instagram or another platform? thanks
All cameras have their “personality”, some are just fun to shoot with and with the huge amount of different kind of films (thanks Lomography) it’s really great to pick up a film and try to figure out what camera that goes with fish ... 32 ASA b/w film, I mean. I started out with Soviet cameras and have 7 different kinds (two are really bad though). As for medium size cameras, I found that 9x6 frames are GREAT (Zeiss Ikon Nettar 517/2). I also have to admire you for bringing your Leica out. Over here (Sweden), people pay crazy prices for an old Leica and lock in a glass cabinet so it can be looked upon and maybe photographed. It’s here the FEDs, Zorkis and other Soviet made copies comes in ....
Love the sentence that all cameras have their own personality - could not agree more! I mean, everybody can do what they like, but I don't really see the point in buying a camera to leave it in a cabinet forever. For me cameras are tools that were meant to be used for shooting, therefore none of my cameras are handles like raw eggs, but they get to see some daylight :)
@@KarinMajoka Some of my cameras are really not good, like the Kiev 35 (Minox copy) or the two 4x4 medium format cameras (and the LOMO 135M). So, some cameras have been used just once. Else I am very much into the Golden Rules of Lomography but try to find a good balance between planning thoroughly (sometimes even use a tripod and a cable release) and "just shoot", being fully aware that whatever is captured on the film was exactly what was meant to be captured.
I liked your video. Very informative. I also have many cameras but not as good as the ones you have. For me to go out to take some film pictures is the best thing in the world...
Thanks for your comment, I appreciate it! I don't think there are necessarily "good" or "bad" cameras - as long as they suit your needs and you enjoy shooting with them there is nothing more to ask for. So have fun shopping and stay safe. :)
That was a really nice collection, you had back in the time. 😄 Did it change over the years? Nice to see, that each of these cameras is somehow special for you. I know this feeling from my own shelf inhabitants. 😅😊
@@KarinMajoka haha! I know this feeling. But if i would start make a similar video, I had to reduce it to the most liked ones. But how to choose? I like them all. 😄
Wowwww! The image quality of that T4 was craaaaazy! I had to pause the video. Is this digital??? haha. Great work once again. Btw, love your studio setup, I find my self kind of gazing at the background just kind of thinking, that looks really cool.
jae rose riiiight?! Exactly my thoughts after scanning my first roll, I was blown away. Thanks, that‘s my working desk I do pretty much everything on from cutting videos to scanning to editing images. It always looks like this, though waaaaay more messy when the camera is off haha 😅
Thank you Neil, I appreciate your comment! It’s probably already too late, since my Nikons already caught the bug of multiplying haha. By the way, I have seen some of your pinhole photos over in some Facebook groups (I think...?) - big fan of your work!
Cool video our collections have some similarities. I have a pre war Contax II, Pentax MX, and two Nikon F3s also from government use! My favourite SLR is the Nikon F2. My favourite rangefinder is my Leica button rewind M2 it's my baby Haha.
That's a lot of similarities indeed, you obviously have good taste in cameras ;) My collection changed quite a bit since that video, but some of my main favourite cameras stayed of course. Thanks for your comment!
Great collection! Here are a few of my favourites I think you would enjoy: Zeiss Ikon Super Ikonta 530 (6x4.5) folding - coupled rangefinder from 1934! Voigtländer Perkeo II or IIIE (6x6) folding Olympus Pen F (35mm half-frame) Olympus XA (35mm rangefinder)
I have always wanted to try out a half frame camera and the Olympus XA. Thanks for the recommendation and your comment, I will check out the other ones as well! :)
Hi Karin, Confession time. Should I feel guilt? I have about 15 film cameras (Pentax MX ME, Nikon F, FTn, FE and F3, Olympus OM1, OM2 (black and chrome), 35 RD, XA, XA2, film Pen F, Rolleiflex T, and Canon P. The only digital camera I would mention here is my Fuji XE-1 which feels to me like a film camera. The only camera here that I bought new was my black MX in 1982. This is still pretty much like new. However, in the past I have sold cameras and now regret selling any of them (mint Yashicamat 124G, mint Pentax ME, MX, and Yashica T4. I bought my 124G in 1992 when I had just been made redundant. I intended to start my own photo library and this camera represented a new future for me and my young family. I saw it advertised in a photo magazine and realised that the telephone number given was incorrect. I somehow deduced what was the correct number and found myself sitting in the owners Flat 100 miles away holding a mint copy which had only had a few rolls put through it. I kick myself regularly for selling this about 15 years later when I thought that digital photography was the only way forward. I had to buy my mint Rolleiflex T to make up for this but it still hurts because of the emotional connection with my family. I had told my wife that my film collection was complete. However...................I have told myself that a Leica is not tooooooo expensive and the hunt for a 111g is underway. After that there could only be the M3, or 111f? Help!
Oh oh, that sounds like a classical case of GAS - gear acquisition syndrome. But fear not, most of the (analog?) photographers suffer from it, including me haha. Don't punish yourself for selling it, who could have thought that film cameras would experience such a revival? Hope you enjoy your camera collection and find some more that make you happy! :)
Got a 12mm Voigtländer VM ultra wide heliar II with Finder , Canon m39 50mm 1.2 both in great shape but rarely used … maybe someone has a Ricoh gr iiix and or Voigtlönder VM apo lanthar 50mm for some swapy swapy ? 😎
Have you looked into getting the Pentax repaired by someone? I know there are people out there that fix old cameras. And you can always buy another lens.
I also found great joy when I lent one of my cameras to my friend when he's interested in analog photography. and that's how I started it actually because my friend gave me a film camera. it's great to pass that torch around :-) random question Karin - if you are going on a trip for say two weeks in Iceland, what cameras would you bring with you?
That's awesome, spread that analog love! :) I sometimes pick up point and shoot or simple SLRs from flea markets even though they might not be worth much, just to have some camera in stock I can gift to friends as well! Puuh, that Iceland question is a tricky one! I have been to Iceland (only for 5 nights) a couple of years ago and made the "mistake" to only bring a digital camera. The trip was rather spontaneous and I was living in an area where I could not easily grab film, which is why I did not bother and just went digital, though regret this decision a lot. Nowadays I would probably bring a medium format camera with a normal focal length (in my case a Bronica ETRSi, but something even lighter would be awesome) plus a SLR with a wide angle and a tele lens, as well as something light for hikes (probably my Yashica t4). Most of the sights in Iceland are by the road but not all. What do you plan on bringing to your trip? :)
That's a brilliant idea actually! Not sure if I will ever be at a level to have merch, BUT if I ever will, this will be included for sure - thanks for the idea :)
Was mich bei Pentax ebenso wie bei Olympus stört: Jede einzelne, die ich hatte, war irgendwann defekt. Schade, weil beide über hervorragende Objektive verfügten (Pentax 3.5/15 zum halben Preis des Nikkor 3.5/15!). Heute sind Pentax-Objektive außerhalb der Normalo-Reihe weit teurer als Nikon, weil seltener zu haben: das superbe 1.8/85 zum Beispiel, das dem Nikkor 1.8/85 ebenbürtig ist, wegen anderer Farb-Charakteristik jedoch einen speziellen Reiz hat, ist heute doppelt so teuer wie ein Nikkor - eben wegen der geringen Verbreitung. Daher habe ich meiner Spotmatic nur das Pentax 2.8/105mm spendiert.
I am a photographer,, not a camera collector. My wife goes to estate auctions and garage sales, sees a camera and says to herself, "It's cheap and Michael likes cameras!" So now I have a camera collection but only because I'm not sure what to do with broken cameras. Can't sell it and I only know how to drive these things, I don't know what makes them go. So they sit in boxes in the basement. Literally. She went to an estate auction once that did not advertise that they had cameras, so none of the collectors were there. They had a garage full of boxes of cameras, lenses, Flashes, accessories of all shapes and sizes. Everything from half-frame cameras to an 8x10 monorail with four lenses. She filled the car floor to ceiling with boxes of camera stuff and proudly brought it home! It took a while but I sold most of it. (Kept the Rolleiflex New Standard, though.) Say it with me: I am not a camera collector. I do not have a camera collection. I am a photographer and the cameras I own I shoot with. Not all of them every year, true, but I mean to get back to that Petri rangefinder Real Soon Now. Good luck. It's a slippery slope you're on. 😉
Oh, too bad. My Zeiss Contax IIIa is one of my favorite shooters. The finish is absolutely the best of any camera. The 50mm f1.5 Zeiss Sonnar is incredible, and I really like focusing with the side wheel. It seems so much more convenient than focusing on the lens with your left hand. Also, the focus, shutter speed, film advance, and shutter release are all in one place. I guess it is a matter of taste. I on the other hand have never been able to warm up to the over hyped, ridiculously over-priced, doesn't take any better photos Leicas.
I’ve always wondered if having a collection is a downfall. Reason why i say that is because the collection i have now a lot of cameras don’t get used for a long time or i don’t spend enough time to learn a camera and use it to the fullest. I’ve always wanted to downsize but i can’t lolz i love film cameras and love talking about them when friends ask about them. I’m glad I’m not the only one that like to keep more than 4 cameras lol
I feel you, it’s hard to let some of the babies go! I think it can be both, an advantage and a disadvantage to have a (huge) collection. I think actually one camera of every „category“ (35mm rangefinder, point and shoot, SLR and same for medium format) should actually be enough. But some cameras have a sentimental or collectors value, which easily makes the collection grow. As long as they bring some happiness all is good I think :)
@@KarinMajoka practice with your medium format and make every shot count. Then your ready , if your already developing your own negatives, with a Paterson tank, there is information on adapting that to 4x5 film. Germany is such a lovely country. I was stationed there 1983 -1992 USAF and live in Eisenburg im Pfalz for 5 yrs. and Bruggen, near the Dutch border for 4yrs. I was so amazed , by the old villages, I started photographing everything in 35mm, then moved to medium format , finally buying a 4x5 the last 2 yrs there. Of course , film and developing costs were cheaper. I still have all those negs and scan them , print for my home. After retiring , the shot weddings and moved to digital. Just recently , I got out my old 35mm cameras, serviced my hassalblad, and tested my 4x5. Currently , I'm shooting 35mm and 6x6, developing the film and scanning to PC .Once I'm comfortable with medium format, and Spring is finally here, ill get the 4x5 out. I live in Massachusetts. Stay safe.
@@kenblair2538 Thanks for the tip! For now it's not an option since I have other priorities than large format at the moment, but maybe some time in the future I will consider it more seriously. :)
Thank you :) Mostly because I stumbled upon this deal (connected to an emotional story) for the Leica M6 Ti Classic that I could not pass on and secondly because I do not do flash photography and therefore have no need for TTL-flash-metering anyway.
I know that feeling, I also have more cameras than shoes for example 😅 I think I need to let some go sooner or later because things got a little out of hand hahah
If you are a collector, then you should get more cameras, but if you are a photographer, just focus in the pictures, in the images, you shouldn't mind the medium, since it only shows that you like to buy stuff but your images don't improve... So focus, is it photography, is it TH-cam, is it buying and feeling you are the Boss, the owner, the master of boxes with lens.

On the side I was learning by myself the tricks of the trade, developing, printing, I even built an Enlarger, and it looked and worked pretty good, my friend heard about that and came over to see what kind of garbage I came up with, but when he lookd at it, he went serious and said: I came to make fun of you, but you left me speechless! 😅 So, when I grew up a little we gather some cash and bought a Pentax ME, which I loved despite the fact that it didn't have aperture control, I had to trick it with Ev + or - ... After that got a Canon AE1... A Yashica-D medium format camera and then I jumped to Digital, with a basic 40D, Nikon d50 and a 7D... After all these years I learned that I had to focus on the final product, not the means... I keep trying, learning, and still don't feel comfortable showing off my pictures, although I get good reviews when I do...
Great collection and photos!! I noticed some photos from Japan. They look fantastic. More of travel vlog please!
wichersham thanks for your kind words, really appreciate it! :) I was in Japan in 2018, but back than I was not focusing on filming that much unfortunately. As soon as traveling is allowed again I will for sure try some travel vlogging about analog photography! :)
Zorki-4K is a very good Soviet rangefinder. The viewfinder is light, there is a diopter correction. One bad thing is that the viewfinder is round and it's a bit difficult to build a frame.
wow die Bilder der Yashica sind ja brutal gut🙆🏻♂️
ich weiß, ich war selber total geflashed nach dem ersten Film. Danach kann man keine andere point and shoot mehr genießen :D
Yes, I’d luv to hear about the story of your M6. Actually, I luv both, the M6 and as well as the M4
I have a (rather old) video on my channel about the story how I got my M6. :)
@@KarinMajoka Okay. I’ll check it out. Thx!
The Canon AE-1 is a great camera if looked after, if a battery leaks, it is a great paperweight! For me, my fave camera the Zenit B with the Hellios 44 lens, no battery, not complex to use, built like a tank and never let me down ever. Great stories here, you have a new sub.
Thanks for your comment and for sharing your thoughts, I appreciate it! :)
Great collection! I absolutely love that you shoot most, if not all, of your collection. I’ve amassed a little collection of about 30 cameras in a short amount of time, mostly from friends cleaning out their attic. My goal is to shoot on each one and decide which ones to keep.
Wow, that's an impressive amount of cameras, it must be nice to try them all out and get to know all of their little quirks! :) I find myself picking up some cameras more often than others, but I try to shoot all cameras I get at least once or twice, to see if I enjoy them.
The Pentax MX was my first camera too. Great camera, all manual. Can work without batteries except for the light meter.
It's also one of the smallest SLRs ever made and I love it for it's compactness! :)
Karin,
Love seeing & hearing about your collection. I have a smaller collection, but I have used a qualified camera tech to give them a Clean, Lube and Adjust (CLA). Any analog camera is like a fine watch and about every 6 to 10 years (depending on use & storage) they need a servicing. That Pentax MX came out in the early 1980s because there was a trend to make cameras lighter & easier to handle. The grinding you hear just says find a good tech for a clean & lube. What about cost? Fine cameras need occasional service, things get dry and wear. The labor cost in my opinion is not cheap but worth it if you plan to keep & use the gear. Fungus can be removed with mild dilution of water and very little hydrogen peroxide. Most people tend to use gear until it is worn and beyond repair, and there is choice on what to do. But looking at your collection, finding a good tech is a worthwhile investment. Love what you do and your sample images.
Thanks for your comment and an insight into your experience! The hint with the CLA is also pretty useful, I think it's important to give cameras a good maintenance. For most of the cameras in my collection I am not sure though if the price is worth it, especially with cameras like the Pentax MX that are not as high in value. I have been to a mechanic to get my M6 CLAed, but luckily it was not necessary since everything was working perfectly fine. I might look into a CLA for my Nikon F3 though and check out prices.
@@KarinMajoka Karin, I also have a Pentax Spotmatic SPII, which is not worth that much on the retail market. But I liked the quality, handling and superb Takumar lenses enough to have it overhauled. Yes, technical work by qualified people (and they are becoming rare) is not cheap, but I intend to keep & use this Pentax Spotmatic. I have a Leica M3, which also had a CLA, and it might be easier to defend this cost because it is a Leica with its superb Elmer lens. I just purchased a refurbished Minolta SRT202, a tank of a camera but the quality and superb Rokkor lenses tell me the investment was worth it. I shoot with a Nikon FM2, Mamiya 645 and Nikon D90, sometimes in the past with my studio lights and backdrops to raise money for schools. Whatever the goal, there is something about capturing that image, mood and moment. Film-which relies on us and not a microchip-is especially good at capturing these moments. We all have different goals and ways to value our gear, but reliability and long term use are my chief valuations.
Best wishes and best regards to your shooting. As one photo instructor once taught me: “When you can paint with light what Rembrandt did with a brush, you are good shooter.”
Nice video! The Pentax MX is quite easily repaired. Mine was overhauled here in the US, but there are quite a few places in Europe too. The Pentax forums have a current list of these. I briefly had a Contax IIIa and now regret getting rid of it :(
Oh that's good to know, I will check out if I can find something nearby. Thanks for sharing! My Contax IIIa is also gone, but at least I know that it's in very good hands now :)
My first film camera i ever bought is a welta reflekta II. I borrowed my families 35mm cameras before. Kinda yoinked them. But i wanted medium format so i bought the welta.
That is a pretty nice start to jump right into medium format! :)
@@KarinMajoka i shot with cameras i borrowed/inherited from family before. Just that i never bought one.
Regarding your SLRs, particularly the Nikons: I note that you are concerned, rightly, with breakage. Here's a solution: find a Barnack Leica (iiif for example.) It is a fraction of the size and weight of an SLR, you can use it to drive nails, it will not break, and as far as image quality is concerned, it has a Leitz lens. Nuff said. Happy shooting!
Great collection! I will also do a video of my analog slr camera collections too! Awesome!
Two cameras you might like to try.. Kodak Retina IIIc and Topcon Super Dm. The Retina almost always needs a CLA if you buy it online.
I am actually trying to thin out my collection instead of getting new stuff - but I will keep those two in mind in case I stumble upon them one day. Thanks! :)
Nice selection, though I would not agree about the contax iiia. They are quite use able, but a slower pace and patience is needed.
Great collection of cameras, I too started a couple of years ago and now have about 40 cameras! . I still have a Leica on my wish list and was thinking about the M3 or M6 :)
Hayder Assam thanks for your comment, your collections also sounds pretty interesting! :) Do you have issues to find enough space for those 40 cameras? I believe that people can accomplish anything, so if you want that M3 or M6, one day you will get it for sure! ✌🏼
@@KarinMajoka Yeah I have a problem with storage , most of them are in boxes and a few on display. I like to use all of them and have started documenting them all since we are in lockdown on an instagram account here instagram.com/nibirucameras/
That's a great collection! It's not about 'need' - it's about passion! I currently have 4 film cameras - medium formats Bronica SQ-A and Yashica LM, a 35mm Olympus OM2n and a Pentax Epsio 928 point and shoot. They all have different uses and all get used! It's all about aesthetics, history, the sound and of course the image. I love the 'clunk' of my Bronica - and yes it's my favourite but don't tell the others! Do I need anymore? No. Do I want anymore? Yes! My medium formats are both 6x6 so I want a 6x7! I want to try pinhole photography. The lure of the Leica is strong. I hanker for a Hasselblad 500. And who doesn't love instant! Keep up the fabulous work and beware those frame limes!! Happy New year :)
That comment is so wholesome and spot on! Thanks for your kind words and for making me laugh. I will take your secret about your favorite to the grave, no worries 😬 the SQ-A is also a camera that I find very interesting in 6x6 but a 6x7 camera is also still on my list - strange, how magically the list of cameras to get only getting longer and longer the more cameras I already own...
Happy new year and all the best :)
My father had a Seagull TLR, but he sold it before he knew I would be interested in it.
I've got "a few" as well :). Best Regards and Best Wishes!
Haha, I am sure I know what "a few" means. Thanks for your comment! :)
Awesome collection! Camera swapping is such a good idea!
Thank you! And yes it is, I swapped several cameras by now and think it’s a plus for both sides :)
Quite an impressive collection! Really enjoyed listening to you talk about the stories behind each camera. I've accumulated a number of cameras (but not as many as your collection) and I want to sell some of them but I'm also reluctant to do so because of the emotional attachment I have with each of them. Love the SX70. I have one too but it needs a bit of servicing
The Unrecorded Photographer thanks so much for your comment, I really appreciate it! Yes, I know that feeling too well, plus I alway think that I might regret selling a camera in the long term. Hope you‘re fine and have fun with your cameras! :)
@@KarinMajoka Thank you hope you're taking care too :)
Great overview!!! I would like to see a vídeo about how and why you bought the Leica M6. Thanks BR
Thanks! There are videos about the how and why on my channel! :)
@@KarinMajoka After sending the message I went looking and found it! I should have done it before I said it. I also liked these videos. are you usually active on Instagram or another platform? thanks
@@diogoteixeira9010 no worries at all! :) yes, usually I am most active on Instagram (@karinmajoka).
All cameras have their “personality”, some are just fun to shoot with and with the huge amount of different kind of films (thanks Lomography) it’s really great to pick up a film and try to figure out what camera that goes with fish ... 32 ASA b/w film, I mean.
I started out with Soviet cameras and have 7 different kinds (two are really bad though). As for medium size cameras, I found that 9x6 frames are GREAT (Zeiss Ikon Nettar 517/2).
I also have to admire you for bringing your Leica out. Over here (Sweden), people pay crazy prices for an old Leica and lock in a glass cabinet so it can be looked upon and maybe photographed. It’s here the FEDs, Zorkis and other Soviet made copies comes in ....
Love the sentence that all cameras have their own personality - could not agree more! I mean, everybody can do what they like, but I don't really see the point in buying a camera to leave it in a cabinet forever. For me cameras are tools that were meant to be used for shooting, therefore none of my cameras are handles like raw eggs, but they get to see some daylight :)
@@KarinMajoka Some of my cameras are really not good, like the Kiev 35 (Minox copy) or the two 4x4 medium format cameras (and the LOMO 135M). So, some cameras have been used just once. Else I am very much into the Golden Rules of Lomography but try to find a good balance between planning thoroughly (sometimes even use a tripod and a cable release) and "just shoot", being fully aware that whatever is captured on the film was exactly what was meant to be captured.
I liked your video. Very informative. I also have many cameras but not as good as the ones you have. For me to go out to take some film pictures is the best thing in the world...
Thanks for your comment, I appreciate it! I don't think there are necessarily "good" or "bad" cameras - as long as they suit your needs and you enjoy shooting with them there is nothing more to ask for. So have fun shopping and stay safe. :)
I wouldn’t worry about wearing out the Nikon F3s. May we all live as long a F3 keeps shooting.
Hahah, word!
That was a really nice collection, you had back in the time. 😄
Did it change over the years?
Nice to see, that each of these cameras is somehow special for you. I know this feeling from my own shelf inhabitants. 😅😊
Thanks! Oh yes, it actually changed a lot. I feel like I should make an updated version of this video at some point. 🤔
@@KarinMajoka haha! I know this feeling. But if i would start make a similar video, I had to reduce it to the most liked ones.
But how to choose? I like them all. 😄
Wowwww! The image quality of that T4 was craaaaazy! I had to pause the video. Is this digital??? haha. Great work once again. Btw, love your studio setup, I find my self kind of gazing at the background just kind of thinking, that looks really cool.
jae rose riiiight?! Exactly my thoughts after scanning my first roll, I was blown away. Thanks, that‘s my working desk I do pretty much everything on from cutting videos to scanning to editing images. It always looks like this, though waaaaay more messy when the camera is off haha 😅
Really you have a good collection of film cameras, I think you are a very rich lady.
if you like the lens on the fed, you can get a Leica screw mount adapter to put it on your m6
Thanks for the tip! I might try it out :)
You have a big heart. I love your cameras and stories about them.
Warning, Nikon slrs are inclined to multiply and Nikkor lenses too.
Thank you Neil, I appreciate your comment! It’s probably already too late, since my Nikons already caught the bug of multiplying haha.
By the way, I have seen some of your pinhole photos over in some Facebook groups (I think...?) - big fan of your work!
I have a Zorki 4k with the Jupiter 8 50mm F2 which I enjoy using.
I have an Olympus Af1 Infinity with the super sharp 35mm f2. 8 lens
Cool video our collections have some similarities. I have a pre war Contax II, Pentax MX, and two Nikon F3s also from government use! My favourite SLR is the Nikon F2. My favourite rangefinder is my Leica button rewind M2 it's my baby Haha.
That's a lot of similarities indeed, you obviously have good taste in cameras ;) My collection changed quite a bit since that video, but some of my main favourite cameras stayed of course. Thanks for your comment!
Great collection!
Here are a few of my favourites I think you would enjoy:
Zeiss Ikon Super Ikonta 530 (6x4.5) folding - coupled rangefinder from 1934!
Voigtländer Perkeo II or IIIE (6x6) folding
Olympus Pen F (35mm half-frame)
Olympus XA (35mm rangefinder)
I have always wanted to try out a half frame camera and the Olympus XA. Thanks for the recommendation and your comment, I will check out the other ones as well! :)
I think you have almost all the iconic cameras (from the video here)…
Hi Karin,
Confession time. Should I feel guilt? I have about 15 film cameras (Pentax MX ME, Nikon F, FTn, FE and F3, Olympus OM1, OM2 (black and chrome), 35 RD, XA, XA2, film Pen F, Rolleiflex T, and Canon P. The only digital camera I would mention here is my Fuji XE-1 which feels to me like a film camera. The only camera here that I bought new was my black MX in 1982. This is still pretty much like new. However, in the past I have sold cameras and now regret selling any of them (mint Yashicamat 124G, mint Pentax ME, MX, and Yashica T4. I bought my 124G in 1992 when I had just been made redundant. I intended to start my own photo library and this camera represented a new future for me and my young family. I saw it advertised in a photo magazine and realised that the telephone number given was incorrect. I somehow deduced what was the correct number and found myself sitting in the owners Flat 100 miles away holding a mint copy which had only had a few rolls put through it. I kick myself regularly for selling this about 15 years later when I thought that digital photography was the only way forward. I had to buy my mint Rolleiflex T to make up for this but it still hurts because of the emotional connection with my family.
I had told my wife that my film collection was complete. However...................I have told myself that a Leica is not tooooooo expensive and the hunt for a 111g is underway. After that there could only be the M3, or 111f? Help!
Oh oh, that sounds like a classical case of GAS - gear acquisition syndrome. But fear not, most of the (analog?) photographers suffer from it, including me haha. Don't punish yourself for selling it, who could have thought that film cameras would experience such a revival? Hope you enjoy your camera collection and find some more that make you happy! :)
The Seagull twin lens reflex, my parents also have it~
It’s not only a pretty cool, but also a pretty decorative camera :)
Got a 12mm Voigtländer VM ultra wide heliar II with Finder , Canon m39 50mm 1.2 both in great shape but rarely used … maybe someone has a Ricoh gr iiix and or Voigtlönder VM apo lanthar 50mm for some swapy swapy ? 😎
Have you looked into getting the Pentax repaired by someone? I know there are people out there that fix old cameras. And you can always buy another lens.
p.s.- I am working on a video of my Hasselblad 500 C/M and should have it posted in the next week or so.
I'll be looking for it! One of my favorite cameras.
Andy
I love your videos!! 🎉
Thank you so much! :)
I also found great joy when I lent one of my cameras to my friend when he's interested in analog photography. and that's how I started it actually because my friend gave me a film camera. it's great to pass that torch around :-) random question Karin - if you are going on a trip for say two weeks in Iceland, what cameras would you bring with you?
That's awesome, spread that analog love! :) I sometimes pick up point and shoot or simple SLRs from flea markets even though they might not be worth much, just to have some camera in stock I can gift to friends as well!
Puuh, that Iceland question is a tricky one! I have been to Iceland (only for 5 nights) a couple of years ago and made the "mistake" to only bring a digital camera. The trip was rather spontaneous and I was living in an area where I could not easily grab film, which is why I did not bother and just went digital, though regret this decision a lot. Nowadays I would probably bring a medium format camera with a normal focal length (in my case a Bronica ETRSi, but something even lighter would be awesome) plus a SLR with a wide angle and a tele lens, as well as something light for hikes (probably my Yashica t4). Most of the sights in Iceland are by the road but not all. What do you plan on bringing to your trip? :)
“Frame limes” = store merch!
That's a brilliant idea actually! Not sure if I will ever be at a level to have merch, BUT if I ever will, this will be included for sure - thanks for the idea :)
Was mich bei Pentax ebenso wie bei Olympus stört: Jede einzelne, die ich hatte, war irgendwann defekt. Schade, weil beide über hervorragende Objektive verfügten (Pentax 3.5/15 zum halben Preis des Nikkor 3.5/15!). Heute sind Pentax-Objektive außerhalb der Normalo-Reihe weit teurer als Nikon, weil seltener zu haben: das superbe 1.8/85 zum Beispiel, das dem Nikkor 1.8/85 ebenbürtig ist, wegen anderer Farb-Charakteristik jedoch einen speziellen Reiz hat, ist heute doppelt so teuer wie ein Nikkor - eben wegen der geringen Verbreitung. Daher habe ich meiner Spotmatic nur das Pentax 2.8/105mm spendiert.
Loving this channel!
Hello and thanks a lot for your comment ⚡️
More about the M6, please 😉
Thanks for your comment! More M6 videos are already in planning, so stay tuned. :)
Nice collection!
I am a photographer,, not a camera collector. My wife goes to estate auctions and garage sales, sees a camera and says to herself, "It's cheap and Michael likes cameras!" So now I have a camera collection but only because I'm not sure what to do with broken cameras. Can't sell it and I only know how to drive these things, I don't know what makes them go. So they sit in boxes in the basement. Literally. She went to an estate auction once that did not advertise that they had cameras, so none of the collectors were there. They had a garage full of boxes of cameras, lenses, Flashes, accessories of all shapes and sizes. Everything from half-frame cameras to an 8x10 monorail with four lenses. She filled the car floor to ceiling with boxes of camera stuff and proudly brought it home! It took a while but I sold most of it. (Kept the Rolleiflex New Standard, though.) Say it with me: I am not a camera collector. I do not have a camera collection. I am a photographer and the cameras I own I shoot with. Not all of them every year, true, but I mean to get back to that Petri rangefinder Real Soon Now.
Good luck. It's a slippery slope you're on. 😉
Pentax KX-MX-LX:18-28mm, 40mm, 50mm, 35mm-70mm,135mm, 200mm : )
I'd have so many if I kept them omggg but I usually just buy and sell, which is great bc I've shot so many
Excellent
Oh, too bad. My Zeiss Contax IIIa is one of my favorite shooters. The finish is absolutely the best of any camera. The 50mm f1.5 Zeiss Sonnar is incredible, and I really like focusing with the side wheel. It seems so much more convenient than focusing on the lens with your left hand. Also, the focus, shutter speed, film advance, and shutter release are all in one place. I guess it is a matter of taste. I on the other hand have never been able to warm up to the over hyped, ridiculously over-priced, doesn't take any better photos Leicas.
Good idea
Nice video :D
thank you! :)
I’ve always wondered if having a collection is a downfall. Reason why i say that is because the collection i have now a lot of cameras don’t get used for a long time or i don’t spend enough time to learn a camera and use it to the fullest. I’ve always wanted to downsize but i can’t lolz i love film cameras and love talking about them when friends ask about them. I’m glad I’m not the only one that like to keep more than 4 cameras lol
I feel you, it’s hard to let some of the babies go! I think it can be both, an advantage and a disadvantage to have a (huge) collection. I think actually one camera of every „category“ (35mm rangefinder, point and shoot, SLR and same for medium format) should actually be enough. But some cameras have a sentimental or collectors value, which easily makes the collection grow. As long as they bring some happiness all is good I think :)
Oh totally! I have 5 cameras that have such a sweet background story i just can’t get rid of i have to keep them and the story going for them.
I’m so happy i found your channel. Love your video editing style and your topics. Looking forward to more vids 🙏🏾💯
Your Konica Autoreflex TC does have a light meter.
You are correct, my bad! Mine is broken which is why I always thought it does not even have one. Good practice without the lightmeter anyway :)
Ooooh a Leica!!! I’m jealous xo yes please tell !!!
I already put out a video on how I got my M6, so feel free to check it out! :)
Cool 👍
Hallo, Karin, kindly asking to comment on film colours as much as you can, pls. Thanx !
Nice collection. You should step up to large format, then your collection will be complete .
Trust me, it has crosses my mind several times, but I am a bit hold back by the costs for sheet film.
@@KarinMajoka practice with your medium format and make every shot count. Then your ready , if your already developing your own negatives, with a Paterson tank, there is information on adapting that to 4x5 film. Germany is such a lovely country. I was stationed there 1983 -1992 USAF and live in Eisenburg im Pfalz for 5 yrs. and Bruggen, near the Dutch border for 4yrs. I was so amazed , by the old villages, I started photographing everything in 35mm, then moved to medium format , finally buying a 4x5 the last 2 yrs there. Of course , film and developing costs were cheaper. I still have all those negs and scan them , print for my home. After retiring , the shot weddings and moved to digital. Just recently , I got out my old 35mm cameras, serviced my hassalblad, and tested my 4x5. Currently , I'm shooting 35mm and 6x6, developing the film and scanning to PC .Once I'm comfortable with medium format, and Spring is finally here, ill get the 4x5 out. I live in Massachusetts. Stay safe.
@@kenblair2538 Thanks for the tip! For now it's not an option since I have other priorities than large format at the moment, but maybe some time in the future I will consider it more seriously. :)
Do you prefer to use SLRs over rangefinders or vice versa? And why?
Both have their pros and cons but I definitely find myself gravitating towards the rangefinder more.
Hi, you have two Nikon F3 and I have two Nikkormat ft N. in a very good condition. Can we change IT?
I am living in Denmark
I can change my Nikkormat ftn, with your Contax camera if you want
Unfortunately no. I only have one F3 left which will stay with me :)
Mam, you have not any camera of Olympus make.?
You have so much money. I need to work 5 jobs to equal.
me e n c a n t a n tus videos ! ! ! 👍👍👍
Gracias ✌🏼☺️
Hi! Well, 2 Nikon f3, a Titanium Leica M6... You must be very rich, hei?.. regards from Portugal.
Come on, you are clever. There are more ways how to own cameras than to be "very rich".
@@KarinMajoka ah, ah, sorry, i was just joking with you! I do have lots of câmeras, to. One of these days, i will show it to you. Best regards.
Why the non-TTL M6? Great video, by the way :)
Thank you :) Mostly because I stumbled upon this deal (connected to an emotional story) for the Leica M6 Ti Classic that I could not pass on and secondly because I do not do flash photography and therefore have no need for TTL-flash-metering anyway.
@@KarinMajoka ahhh, got it! keep up the great work, love it
I really wanna know how you got the Leica 6
I made a whole video about the story - feel free to check it out if you are interested. :)
I was told that the Japanese copy of the Rolleiflex, Yashica Mat 124G is a better camera in every way than the Chinese one…
I think I have more cameras than clothes in my wardrobe. I have a serious buying problem, time to shift a lot on me thinks :D
I know that feeling, I also have more cameras than shoes for example 😅 I think I need to let some go sooner or later because things got a little out of hand hahah
@@KarinMajoka it's very difficult when you become attached to them haha
You perfectly butchered name of this polish camera, and I loved it
If you are a collector, then you should get more cameras, but if you are a photographer, just focus in the pictures, in the images, you shouldn't mind the medium, since it only shows that you like to buy stuff but your images don't improve... So focus, is it photography, is it TH-cam, is it buying and feeling you are the Boss, the owner, the master of boxes with lens.
I just got my very first SLR..... Pentax ME :)
Nice, congrats! :)
Yesyesyesyes I wanna know the story
Then you should check out the video on my channel! :)
Only 15 !
haha had to: frame limes..... LEMON!!! (c'mon!)
What’s your favorite digital camera ?
I don't really shoot digital and have not used many digital cameras. The only one I own is the Sony A7II that I use to record my videos.
Actually the name of Polish camera you are showing is pronounced Druh (with hard h) Synchro (ch is hard h too)
Dziękuję bardzo! :) I did not know that, I will ask my father to pronounce it, so that I can hear.
@@KarinMajoka I'm happy to help
Did you get rid of your Leica
No, never. :)
@@KarinMajoka Nice... last I talked I had dreams of one... eventually eventually... all in time... what lens do you have
