As a student, I shot many boring and subject-less images with it. Eventually my shooting got better and, after switching to slide film, I forced myself into better landscape photography. After several thousand shutter clicks, the foam in the camera disintegrated two years ago. So I bought a used AE-1P. Wanting better optics than the FD lenses, I switched to a Zeiss Ikon this year. Still, the AE-1P is a sentimental favourite (and much easier to use than the Zeiss in many ways). My old Canon AE-1P which I got back in junior high.

Each has a different feel and flavour. There are lots of digital lenses as fast as f/1.4 or faster. I would say that it a tie between my Nikon FE, Nikon F100 and my Minox 35GT.

I always poke fun at my digital friends how they would be hard-pressed to find a lens faster than my 1:1.4 50mm. But the camera I would never sell is my Yashica Electro 35. It's just a good, honest rangefinder. What more could anyone ask for? My everyday camera is my Pentax ME Super, it’s a great camera.

Impossible! Like the author of question, I also worked in photo retail and later in my own pro studio. And how do I pick which film format? To keep this novel a short one, and to settle on One manufacturer, I will pick Nikon. I've had several. The first, an F, with standard prism, w.l. finder, and a clip on meter. A beaut! Tragically, one nite the strap on tripod broke, and the pavement violently assaulted my sleeping partner. She survived admirably. How can I pick one camera as my favorite? Impossible!

I don't remember the last time I used it though. It was my grandfathers and he got me hooked on photography back when I was in the 6th Grade. It sits on my desk along side the Zenit 35mm SLR I have as well. I guess my favourite 35mm SLR would be the Pentax Asahi I have. I don’t remember the last time I used it though.
