Wish List Canon 5D MarkII

ha ha Leaf u started pretty early !

If I may join in...

I took my first picture at the tender age of 7 with a Kodak Instamatic 126  Later, on my 14th birthday, my father bought me a Zenit(h) TTL which I used for many years.

I currently use an EOS 1D MkII and love it!

Going back a few years here ..

Zenit E   this had Automatic NOTHING !!!
Canon AE-1  Loved it. Was so good someone stole it!!!
Nikon FG20 traveled the world with this one
Fuji Finepix 68000 my intro to digital
Nikon P70 ?  kept it too long
Nikon D80 my new baby.

First cam was Zeiss Ikon Contessa rangefinder, now a collector's item. Still have it here somewhere. Was followed by a Yashica TLR (120 roll film). Both were bought used from an old timer photog.  First 35mm was Nikon FM followed by Nikon FE2 and then Nikon F4s.

Very first digital was an Olympus point & shoot in 1997 I think.

Now have Nikon D200 and Nikon D3, and all of my old lenses work on them ;-)

For fun an portability have Panasonic DMC LX2 and Panny FZ50. The pannys are noisy, but love the LX2 for quick travel shots because of the 16:9 format achieved with 28mm equivalent lens.

My parents owned several Polaroids/instamatics while I was growing up. I didn't get my first camera until I was in my early teens. I wanted a SLR but my mom thought I should learn a little more with a p&s. I was crushed. (and the camera was a piece of sh*t). I think the sales person conned her a bit because it wasn't cheap either.

Richoh ( piece of crap P&S)
Canon AE1 (love that camera and still have it)
Kodak DC210 (2.1 mp woowee!!)
Olympus C4040 (Excellent camera with a super sharp f1.8 lens)
Nikon D80

Next will be a full frame...

My first camera was made of plastic, viewfinder camera Ami 66 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ami_66). Next one was my first SLR - Praktica MTL 5B (http://www.praktica-collector.de/214_Praktica_MTL5B.htm). I wish I still have them cause they are rare collector items now ;-) After that all Canon EOS cameras: 500N, 3, 10D, 20D ;-)













and NEXT one should be:

Hum lets see:

Pentax ME Super
Canon EOS Elan IIE
Canon EOS 1n (which was stolen  )
Canon EOS 3
Canon Rebel XSi

My first SLR was a Canon AV-1, purchased 26 years ago.  Future?  I don't have the slighest idea.  I still haven't mastered everything my Canon 400D has to offer me.

In digital, my first camera was Fuji Finepix 2650Zoom, 2MPix.  Excellent optics, but lacking any manual setting.

First was an Argus that shot 120 cassettes. That was in the early 1960's.  When my father saw that I was serious about it, he gave me one of his old 35mm cams that he had purchased in the 50's, I believe.   A Futura Synchro Compur. I put a lot of miles on that thing.  First cam I purchased myself was a Pentax Spotmatic in 1969... In the 70's I switched to a Canon ftbn and have been a Canon guy ever since.  For playing in the dirt and water, I had a couple instamatic cams. Didn't want to ruin my Pentax or Canon. When the digital thing started, I did buy myself a Sony Mavica to play with. When I decided I wanted to make the move from mostly film to mostly digital,  I got my Canon Rebel.  I still have all of them and still used the two older film 35's and the Mavica once in awhile. The Rebel has been my workhorse for some time and still serves me well.
    Now,  I'm waiting for my Canon 5D Mark II ... and I'm pretty excited about it. =tom

My first camera was canon PS A60 then canon 350D till now, next buy would be full frame from sony I think.

My first was a Pentax MG that my father gave me when I was around 15. Five years later it was a step backwards to Pentax ME Super just because it had more control than the MG. First AF cam was a Pentax MZ-50 (died). Now using my first digital an *ist DS. Saving to buy my first NEW cam a K20 although I wonder if it will stand up as well as my MG and ME more than 30 years old and still as reliable as ever!
