Great stuff. I don't think you've got too many cameras there at all. My collection is far worse, lol. I did finally tame my G.A.S. by using a best-in-class methodology. I laid out the categories, 35mm and medium format. Categories are 35mm: manual focus rangefinder, P&S, manual SLR, autofocus SLR, and a half frame camera. For Medium format, TLR, SLR, RF, and pinhole. Then oddball formats 16mm movie, Instant film, 110 (on body), and a digital body. As it stands, those slots are filled with a Canon New F1, Konica Genbakandoku Zoom, Yashica GX, Canon EOS 3, Pen FT, Mamiya C220 Pro F, Bronica ETRSi, Fujica GW680iii, Lerouge Square, Fuji SQ6, Canon EOS R, Minolta 460TX, and a Keystone Deluxe 16mm. Now if I get GAS, whatever I get has to be a candidate to replace one of the existing. For example, right now I've got a Mamiya 645 I'm about to sell. It was a candidate to replace the Bronica, but it lost. I only own two lenses (or less) per system, with the exception of the EOS 3 + Canon R, where I share EF lenses and own 5.
I'm surprised no one has commented on the problem with the Bronica, and from what you said it seems like it's an easy fix. It looks like you have the multi exposure dial on, it's a little lever on the right side of the camera (looking from the back). It's right next to the grip. The little lever should be in the up position. The newer ETR SI version shows a red indicator on the screen, I don't know if yours has it but I'm pretty sure that will fix the problem.
Have you checked battery compartment of your Olympus AF-1? Course that's the place often corrosion happens, and that should be an easy fix. If not, open it and see if there's anything broken. Course as you said, it's a shelf piece anyway...
Thanks for sharing your film camera collection with us. I also own and use the RB67 and the Contax G1. The RB67 is my personal favorite for portraits. I use the 180mm for head and shoulder portraits, the 90mm for full-lengh portraits, and the 50mm for large group portraits. The Contax G1 is my second favorite 35mm rangefinder camera. My two G1 cameras with 21/28/45/90mm lenses serve as back-ups for my favorite 35mm rangefinder -- the Leica M6 with 21/35/90mm lenses.
My father’s AE-1 and my best friend left me a Yashica Mat when he died and of the 41 cameras that I own they are my most cherish the Bronica is the perfect camera large format that is light enough to carry
I have several similar ones to yours. Canon A1, Contax G1, Pentax 67, Several versions of the Yashica Electro 35 and the Olympus F-1. My Olympus F-1 works beautifully. I had one in the 90's and used it for years until I got a Canon Rebel 2000 SLR. I somehow lost track of it, most likely my wife sold it at a garage sale without me knowing it, but then recently I found one in good condition on Ebay and have been shooting it for just the fun of it. It is a great camera, too bad yours does not work. My favorite film camera currently is a Nikon F3.
Great video 👍📷. The hasselblad does look tired. I’m wanting to get into medium format and if you are wanting to exchange or sell it I would be interested. Keep shooting 📸. Kindest regards Tom.
Wonderful collection! special the medium format camera......great job!

"Landscapes in England, I don't find particularly inspiring."
Muahahahahaha!
I resemble that remark. Bwahahaha hahahahaha!
Great video 👍📷.

I’ll be happy to take the burden of too many cameras off your hands 😂
My lord what is wrong with this kid's voice?!
