shiny new (to me) toys to play with, and I soon found I was seeking out new possibilities of film – the greater convenience, compactness and affordability of 35mm, plus all the different cameras to

The first 35mm film camera I bought was a Lomo Smena 8M, surprisingly manual in retrospect – I could have chosen something far more automated.</p> <p>My first SLR was a Praktica BMS Electronic, a solid and serious leather coated chunk of German engineering and electronics.

Which leads us to the second word and stage – Best.</p> <p><strong>Best</strong></p> <p>After a while (and indeed even after trying two cameras), you can make an informed decision about which camera you like best. It can’t be a judgement based on all the cameras in the world, because no-one has used all the cameras in the world, but only what you’ve used thus far.</p> <p>Plus sometimes, indeed often, it’s not a decision based on the spec sheet or technical prowess of the kit, but more about how it makes you feel when you hold and use it.</p> <p>With me for example, after trying Praktica, Konica and Canon, I found I much preferred Pentax, especially the M range – ME, ME Super, MV et al.

I got a bunch of Nikons, as that’s just convenient for me as I do own a few quite nice lenses for the system and like to stick with them. When I leave the house I usually will grab either a Nikon FM2 or a Nikon F3, or I decide to travel light and choose a Leica just because I love the rangefinders and the smooth operation of them. As you say, it’s mostly about feeling and how you feel about the different cameras. How they fit you more than any other issue, I think. If they’re automatic or manual is of less importance most of the time (to me, anyway), but sometimes you clearly will choose by that criteria only.<br /> And some days you want something completely different, and just have to let that old Voigtländer with sticky shutter get out in some fresh air.</p> </div> </article> <ol class="children"> <li id="comment-190" class="comment byuser comment-author-iamdanjames bypostauthor odd alt depth-2 parent"> <article id="div-comment-190" class="comment-body"> <footer class="comment-meta"> <div class="comment-metadata"> <span class="comment-author vcard"> <img alt='' src='https://1.gravatar.com/avatar/779eefd8d222a3bbe39d4b72f160489197652af04f2432f261d5dd2f03880f65?s=54&d=identicon&r=G' srcset='https://1.gravatar.com/avatar/779eefd8d222a3bbe39d4b72f160489197652af04f2432f261d5dd2f03880f65?s=54&d=identicon&r=G 1x, https://1.gravatar.com/avatar/779eefd8d222a3bbe39d4b72f160489197652af04f2432f261d5dd2f03880f65?s=81&d=identicon&r=G 1.5x, https://1.gravatar.com/avatar/779eefd8d222a3bbe39d4b72f160489197652af04f2432f261d5dd2f03880f65?s=108&d=identicon&r=G 2x, https://1.gravatar.com/avatar/779eefd8d222a3bbe39d4b72f160489197652af04f2432f261d5dd2f03880f65?s=162&d=identicon&r=G 3x, https://1.gravatar.com/avatar/779eefd8d222a3bbe39d4b72f160489197652af04f2432f261d5dd2f03880f65?s=216&d=identicon&r=G 4x' class='avatar avatar-54' height='54' width='54' loading='lazy' decoding='async' /> <b class="fn"><a href="https://35hunter.wordpress.com" class="url" rel="ugc external nofollow">dan james</a></b> </span> <a href="https://35hunter.blog/2017/01/30/how-to-discover-your-ideal-film-camera-the-test-best-rest-plan/#comment-190"> <time datetime="2017-02-07T20:13:18+00:00"> <span class="comment-date">February 7, 2017</span><span class="comment-time screen-reader-text">8:13 pm</span> </time> </a> <span class="reply"><a rel="nofollow" class="comment-reply-link" href="https://35hunter.blog/2017/01/30/how-to-discover-your-ideal-film-camera-the-test-best-rest-plan/?replytocom=190#respond" data-commentid="190" data-postid="4135" data-belowelement="div-comment-190" data-respondelement="respond" data-replyto="Reply to dan james" aria-label="Reply to dan james">Reply</a></span> </div> </footer> <div class="comment-content"> <p>Hi Roy, thanks for your thoughts. </p> <p>Funny you should write about this, I’m half way through a post about how I choose different cameras for different moods, and why one camera doesn’t suit every urge! </p> </div> </article> <ol class="children"> <li id="comment-191" class="comment byuser comment-author-roykarlsvik even depth-3 parent"> <article id="div-comment-191" class="comment-body"> <footer class="comment-meta"> <div class="comment-metadata"> <span class="comment-author vcard"> <img alt='' src='https://1.gravatar.com/avatar/dc9c729bcfd4b11b92a653499d2d7a79cb4c26cf73ef9d6e6004f3f78bd08b2d?s=54&d=identicon&r=G' srcset='https://1.gravatar.com/avatar/dc9c729bcfd4b11b92a653499d2d7a79cb4c26cf73ef9d6e6004f3f78bd08b2d?s=54&d=identicon&r=G 1x, https://1.gravatar.com/avatar/dc9c729bcfd4b11b92a653499d2d7a79cb4c26cf73ef9d6e6004f3f78bd08b2d?s=81&d=identicon&r=G 1.5x, https://1.gravatar.com/avatar/dc9c729bcfd4b11b92a653499d2d7a79cb4c26cf73ef9d6e6004f3f78bd08b2d?s=108&d=identicon&r=G 2x, https://1.gravatar.com/avatar/dc9c729bcfd4b11b92a653499d2d7a79cb4c26cf73ef9d6e6004f3f78bd08b2d?s=162&d=identicon&r=G 3x, https://1.gravatar.com/avatar/dc9c729bcfd4b11b92a653499d2d7a79cb4c26cf73ef9d6e6004f3f78bd08b2d?s=216&d=identicon&r=G 4x' class='avatar avatar-54' height='54' width='54' loading='lazy' decoding='async' /> <b class="fn"><a href="http://betweenlightandshadowblog.wordpress.com" class="url" rel="ugc external nofollow">roykarlsvik</a></b> </span> <a href="https://35hunter.blog/2017/01/30/how-to-discover-your-ideal-film-camera-the-test-best-rest-plan/#comment-191"> <time datetime="2017-02-07T20:15:13+00:00"> <span class="comment-date">February 7, 2017</span><span class="comment-time screen-reader-text">8:15 pm</span> </time> </a> </div> </footer> <div class="comment-content"> <p>Excellent Dan.

My favorite is the Pentax Spotmatic SPII, and I’ve owned that one since 2010. Right now if I had to choose one camera and one lens for the rest of my life it would be the Spotmatic with a 1.8/55 SMC Takumar lens, but there are times when I break out some of the old rangefinders for a while, just for something different, but Pentax is the first love. I’d be curious to try out the LX as I think it would be the only way I’d upgrade to K-mount lenses, but until that happens I’m quite happy with the Spotmatic.</p> </div> </article> <ol class="children"> <li id="comment-363" class="comment byuser comment-author-iamdanjames bypostauthor odd alt depth-2 parent"> <article id="div-comment-363" class="comment-body"> <footer class="comment-meta"> <div class="comment-metadata"> <span class="comment-author vcard"> <img alt='' src='https://1.gravatar.com/avatar/779eefd8d222a3bbe39d4b72f160489197652af04f2432f261d5dd2f03880f65?s=54&d=identicon&r=G' srcset='https://1.gravatar.com/avatar/779eefd8d222a3bbe39d4b72f160489197652af04f2432f261d5dd2f03880f65?s=54&d=identicon&r=G 1x, https://1.gravatar.com/avatar/779eefd8d222a3bbe39d4b72f160489197652af04f2432f261d5dd2f03880f65?s=81&d=identicon&r=G 1.5x, https://1.gravatar.com/avatar/779eefd8d222a3bbe39d4b72f160489197652af04f2432f261d5dd2f03880f65?s=108&d=identicon&r=G 2x, https://1.gravatar.com/avatar/779eefd8d222a3bbe39d4b72f160489197652af04f2432f261d5dd2f03880f65?s=162&d=identicon&r=G 3x, https://1.gravatar.com/avatar/779eefd8d222a3bbe39d4b72f160489197652af04f2432f261d5dd2f03880f65?s=216&d=identicon&r=G 4x' class='avatar avatar-54' height='54' width='54' loading='lazy' decoding='async' /> <b class="fn"><a href="https://35hunter.wordpress.com" class="url" rel="ugc external nofollow">dan james</a></b> </span> <a href="https://35hunter.blog/2017/01/30/how-to-discover-your-ideal-film-camera-the-test-best-rest-plan/#comment-363"> <time datetime="2017-04-26T19:35:51+00:00"> <span class="comment-date">April 26, 2017</span><span class="comment-time screen-reader-text">7:35 pm</span> </time> </a> <span class="reply"><a rel="nofollow" class="comment-reply-link" href="https://35hunter.blog/2017/01/30/how-to-discover-your-ideal-film-camera-the-test-best-rest-plan/?replytocom=363#respond" data-commentid="363" data-postid="4135" data-belowelement="div-comment-363" data-respondelement="respond" data-replyto="Reply to dan james" aria-label="Reply to dan james">Reply</a></span> </div> </footer> <div class="comment-content"> <p>I love the Spotmatics too.

Definitely did what I needed it to, and a camera that ran off AA batteries was very convenient for me. I only had off-brand zooms to use with it though, and eventually the Takumar grabbed my heart. I’ve come across a few K1000s every now and then (all in pretty bad shape), I put a roll through an SF-1 (much too modern). I also think part of the problem is that I’ve not been too terribly impressed with the M-series lenses, but have started accumulating the previous K lenses that are supposed to be optically identical to the Takumars, picked up a KX at the same time but unfortunately the meter doesn’t work. The MX looks alright but doesn’t give me anything I don’t already have on the Spotmatic, so why change? Most of my camera acquisitions are bargain finds at thrift stores and garage sales, if I’m going to search out a particular camera body, I want something with more features, that can still shoot manual, plus the LX is supposed to be the equal of the Nikons, so why not eh?</p> </div> </article> </li> </ol> </li> </ol> </li> </ol> <div id="respond" class="comment-respond"> <h3 id="reply-title"
