These are the only cameras I own:

Still: 1 (Minolta XG-1 from 1981, works great with K64 + 200 slide)
and
Projectors: 3 r+s8 (Elmo, Eumig and B&H)
2 s8 (Elmo and Eumig)
1 16mm (B&H)
---------
total: 6

16 mm, digital stillcameras and videocameras? I borrow from my work or friends whenever I need them.

So, non of you guys has the Minolta's heavy artillery , the D12?
It was more expensive than any Zeiss or Nizo (or Canon of course) those days.

The Nizo 156 macro is my workhorse.

Bring on the PC knifes.

- leicina Special w/ 10mm cinegon w/ ST1
- leicina RT1 w/ ST1 + minolta to m adapter
- beaulieu 6008S w/ schneider 6-70mm
- fujica ZC1000 w/ fujinon 5.5mm
- nalcom ftl - dead in the water. a pig. really.
- canon auto-zoom 814 - my first all metal camera - fond fond memories.
- visual instrumentation 250fps dual pin registration w/ C-10 ac-dc power supply w/ 25mm f0.95
- visual instrumentation 16mm analytical projector - future retrofit to widescreen ds8.
- 3x Nizo 156 macros
- Fairchild Regular 8 900 sound w/ 200ft mag. Complete kit.
- isco 2/x iscorama w/ iris in minolta mount + minolta to c mount adapter
- kowa 2x for bell/howell

Update to my own situation

Super 8:
Elmo Super 110 (favourite)
Leicina Super
Nizo S560 (dig that variable shutter, man)
Chinon 200/8XL
Chinon Pacific 300 (I think, don't use it often)
Chinon 1200SM-sound
Beaulieu 1008XL
Sankyo MF606

std 8:
Chinon Master
Quarz clockwork

Still:
Praktica BX20s (plus many lenses, adaptors etc)
Praktica B200
Praktica MTL-5
Nikon F601 (three lenses including 16mm fisheye)
Kiev medium format SLR (copy of Zeiss-ikon I believe)
Vivitar Mariner underwater
Science Museum pinhole 35mm camera
Halina 35X (two of)


That makes it 19! I gave the wife my Nikon F50.

Oh I have three camcorders too, but I don't really count them as cameras...and some little Sanyo 3.1MP digi compact...that and two of the camcorders were given to me (as was the F50).

I also have an old Fuli 2.3MP digicam that hasn't seen any use in a couple of years but still works...and some vintage cameras such as a Kodak Pocket 1 and various 50's rollfilm cameras.

My project this year will be to resurrect the plate camera my dad made as a student in the mid 50's. But he always has so many projects on the go its hard to pin him down and actually finish one! So maybe I'll just get the plate camera working myself...not much wrong with it...
