Your Dream Camera

[Graeme Hird]

Arca Swiss F-Line Metric 5x4, although my Tachi is quite suitable for what I do now.

Already have my dream 35mm system - Nikon F5.

... a camera that dreams, talks, and shoots like I do, so I can take a long nap in the afternoon.

zorki 1 - small , compact, with great lenses. can do anything that other cameras can if you know to use it.


(also i would like to have some camera used in wwii- i like that feeling that someone in war was running around with camera and shooting and that i have it after him. )

Some interesting replies here folks! I have to agree with RichSBV though, the Minolta XK is a supreme camera (i'm a bit of a Minolta nut) and could only be improved with the addition of the 135mm (2)/85mm (2) or the 35mm (1.8) MD Rokkor.
Nostalgically though I reckon i'd like to get my hands on a mint Yashica FR1 with a collection of fine ML lenses (perhaps when i've finished my Minolta collection to my satisfaction)

An OM4-Ti and/or Pentax 67II with a shutter priority mode.

Hmm... dream camera(s) Nikon FM3a with lenses... maybe a Hassie... but for now I'm perfectly happy with my OM-1n MD and Isolette I.

I bought most of my dream cameras, except for one of two, and their all for sale. The next one I want to buy and probably sell is the Arca F.

What I really want is a handheld meter with multiple averaging spot points, central frame averaging and matrix metering. If they can put it in a camera, they can put it in a handheld meter.
