How many cameras have we acquired over the last 2 years?

I'll start - not too much to tell:

Nikon D700
Nikon D300 (sold)
Canon G9 (sold)
Palm Centro - cameraphone

I suspect others here have a more interesting story to tell :)

The interesting (or scary) is the stark difference in camera changes with digital....

Canon AV-1 - :angel: used it during 20 years, broke down in 2001.
Nikon F100 - :lecture: sold in 2007 after 5 years use (excellent, but wanted larger format to get better large prints)
Nikon D50 - :angry: 2006 had two months, did not like.
Nikon D200 - :mad: 2006 - 2007? had 15 months, did not like.
Mamiya ZD Camera - :cussing: had only 6 months, due camera had design problem.
Leaf Aptus 65 - :salute: have had for last 16 months, excellent and keeper.

Ah, parallel to stepping into digital... also for FILM...
Mamiya 7ii - :clap:should use it more, cannot sell it, simply wonderful, simple + FUJI SLIDES :ROTFL:.
Shen Hao TFC45-IIB - :thumbup: very new to me.

As far as small cameras (digital)...
Canon V something... 2MP or so
Minolta XTi (or what was the name?) - had until broken.
Casio Z something... 8MP?? - had until broken.
Canon G9 - sold after three weeks ...
Sigma DP1 - do not like it very much...

Would we all not have spent alot less $ if the world would have remained on FILM???? :toocool:

Regards
Anders

Oh Dear
Olympus E3 kept
Nikon D3 bought and sold
Nikon D700 bought and sold
Panasonic G1 bought and sold
Leica d-lux 4 kept
Sony A900 bought and kept.


My M8's don't come into the equation as they are both more than 2 years old, and I still have them both.

Actually spending more on glass than on cameras :eek:

:) Leica MP.85 [feb 2008]
:( Panasonic G1 [nov 2008]

My :) D-Lux3 [nov 2006] and :) M8 [mar 2007] are just over two years now.
But I save up and keep my fingers crossed for 2010 ... :angel: R10


Kind regards.

We ought to also post the countervailing purchases expressed in carats perhaps?
