Which camera brand you actively use, other than Canon?

[mrsfotografie]

I've recently acquired a Sony NEX-6 because I wanted to get a good (APS-C) compact system camera and Canon isn't quite there, yet. The last few years I've been pretty loyal to Canon, until now.

What other camera brand do you actively use, other than Canon? If you like, please specify which model and why.

Olympus for their Tough series, they're a little more professional looking than Canon's option. depending on where the XZ series goes for Olympus versus where the G series goes for Canon, I may switch to an XZ cam as well.

Fuji X-E1.

Fujinon 18-55mm and 35mm lenses + Rokinon 8mm fisheye.

iPhone

Yes, I noticed that was conspicuously absent from the list, although I'm pretty sure it is the best selling camera in the world.

Sony RX-100 for portable quality. I actually used it at 2 weddings last year. One when I was mother of the bride and didn't want to carry a dslr while participating in the wedding. The 2nd time I was hired by a videographer to tape a wedding. He only provided me with one camera, despite my request for a backup. The ceremony was very long (Greek Orthodox) and the hard drive filled up. I pulled out the RX-100 in desperation. Quality was sufficient to satisfy the videographer and client

Sony RX100 - highly impressive IQ for such a tiny package. Just wish the lens was a bit wider and had sharper corners...

Olympus OM series film cameras. Fuji X-100s to be added in the near future.

 

[silat shooters]

I have a Sony RX100 for constant carry and NEX 5n for weekend travel. Both provide excellent IQ and compliment my 5D III.

Sony RX100 - my go to camera when I cannot use a DSLR

Mamiya. But not digital, I have an RB67 pro SD. Nice big negatives.

I recently bought a Sony Nex 5N for £400 with the twin lens system was a bargain and a great lightweight all round camera for the days when I dont want to carry my 5DMKIII.

I also use a Bronica ETRSI on the odd occasion.

Hmm... no option to add more than one alternative?

I have a 1952 (?) Rollei TLR and a 1954(?) Agfa Super Silette RF and a couple of OM SLR's. I pick them up when I'm in the mood. They all work fine.

Even my phone camera gets it's day in the sun from time to time... it can do things than an SLR can't.

iPad.... for those times when a 3" tilt-swivel screen just won't do

 

[RMC33]

I have an older Leica Film camera my parents bought and gave to me.

Except for my iphone, which I never use for photos (don't like how they look), I'm presently all-Canon. But I was curious about all the enthusiasm shown for the Olympus OMD EM5, so I rented one last weekend along with a few lenses and was instantly impressed, both by the camera and the lenses; I'm about to order one....

Golly, that otta have been a checkbox thing instead of an only-one button thing

Pentax - cuz they feel good in my hands and work fantastic for some of my uses
Nikon - cuz they completely outperform the Canons they replace
Panasonic & Sony - because I have them too and they're good at what they do
Olympus and Fuji - on the purchase list
