I mainly shoot film. A quick(ish) check tells me I have 20 film Nikon SLRs along with a D50 and a D300.

The D300 was a recent addition as I wanted a camera I could use my MF lenses with. I mainly use my FM2n, though I recently picked up a 135mm f3.5 Pre-Ai (type K) for £3.99 and have been using my Nikkormat EL.

I started about 38 years ago when I was in my teens and got back into film in 2014 when you could buy it for £1 and get it developed and scanned for £3.

Then I found cameras on eBay for 99p and in charity shops for £5. My FM cost £17, my F3 and F90 cost £30 for the pair, all with lenses. Now I have 150+ cameras.

Lens wise my 50/1.4, 55/2.8, 85/2, 105/2.5 and 35-105/3.5-4.5 are my main lenses. I only have the 50/2 and the 135/3.5 for the Nikkormat. I only have two Pre-Ai bodies, the other is a Nikkormat FTn.

Maybe when I get time I should take a family photo and upload it.
