artgodmyk Posted May 3, 2017 Share #61 Posted May 3, 2017 Advertisement (gone after registration) 1 Nikon D800e + five lenses, 5 Nikon F & F2’s + 8 lenses, 1 Hasellblad 500c + 4 lenses, 1 Hasellblad + 1 Superwide, 1 Rollie F 2.8 TLR, 1 Sony RX100 3. All cameras are in regular use. The logic for use is what I consider to be the most appropriate to the work I am doing at the time. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

kentishrev Posted May 5, 2017 Share #62 Posted May 5, 2017 My pre-Leica kit was Pentax K30, together with 31, 43, 77 and 100mm Macro, and they are all still used. For the 'camera in the pocket', it's a Ricoh GR. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sparth Posted May 5, 2017 Share #63 Posted May 5, 2017 i've had a lot of cameras and Leica through the years. (x1, x, xvario, m9, Q) and for some absurd reason, i sold all of them one after the other. but in about a month time, i decided to reverse this for good, and possibly forever started with a Leica TL, bought 3 weeks ago. and today i got rid of absolutely all my camera gear in order to buy ... the M 262. de facto, my unique and only "other" camera has just become the Leica TL.

jchfriis Posted May 13, 2017 Share #64 Posted May 13, 2017 Digital: Panasonic Lumix GX85 with a Panasonic 25/1.7 lens. Film: Olympus OM-2S with some lenses that I can also use on my digitals. YashicaMat 124G for MF. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freightdawg747 Posted May 18, 2017 Share #65 Posted May 18, 2017 I use two Canon 1DMark IV's with a 70-200 F2.8 L , 24-70 F2.8L and a 400MM F2.8 L. When not using my M240 I shoot sports for a school and a few local papers. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jhluxton Posted May 18, 2017 Share #66 Posted May 18, 2017 My other cameras in addition to the fairly recently acquired M262 are: Leica V-Lux 3 for ship and long distance photography. Leica X1 for something small when needed. Leica X-Vario bought it as a bundle deal with accessories because it was the nearest to my old Digilux 2 not been used much since the M262 arrived. Currently reviewing its future! John Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jshyshka Posted May 22, 2017 Share #67 Posted May 22, 2017 Advertisement (gone after registration) I have many 'other cameras' - however my main go to other cameras in the digital world are my Leica Q & T (with four lenses for the T) - and a Fuji-X-Pro2 (with five lenses - if you ever get a chance, shoot with this camera - very nice) - I also have a full Canon system with several L lenses, but don't really shoot it all that much anymore - I am getting to old to carry all that stuff around .

Mashimaro Posted May 25, 2017 Share #68 Posted May 25, 2017 My current camera line up consists a Sony A7R2 (55mm 1.8 and 16-35 F4 Zeiss) and also a Canon 5D Mk4 (85L II and 24-70 2.8 II). All of my cameras have their own purpose. But the M240 with summilux lenses is still my favourite to use Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

pico Posted May 29, 2017 Share #71 Posted May 29, 2017 (edited) This whole thread is like having a 'my other car is a Skoda' sticker on your Ferrari (OK, maybe not the guys with Phase Ones and Hasselblads ...) In my past life I drove a heavily dented and faded paint 65 Mustang with the bumper sticker, "My other car is a piece of sh*t, too." Oh, to get back on-topic, all my non-Leicas (there are many) are range finders or viewfinders. Edited May 29, 2017 by pico Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Etruscello Posted June 13, 2017 Share #74 Posted June 13, 2017 Panasonic GX8 + "Leica" lenses,- 15 (=30) Summilux, 25 (=50) Summilux, 50( =100) Summilux M asph, 100-400 (=200-800) Vario-Elmar, replaces the M240 as a travel an wildlife camera. Reasons: Light, small and capable long zoom, Good AF and useful features. Very good manual focus Very good EVF Amazing image stabilisation (up to 5 stops, giving easy 800 mm shots @ 60th handheld) Excellent light "Leica Summilux" lenses Surprisingly capable 20 MP sensor Superior build quality. Fully weatherproofed. I went for the Panasonic over Olympus because the Leica lenses work better with the body. And the whole kit fits into a small Billingham for Leica bag and weighs less than 5kg... I just noticed this thread and would like to respond to jaapv. I have been using the GX8 and the Leica line of 4/3 lenses as backup to M240 and/or Nikon D800e systems. I am impressed beyond my expectations for a small sensor camera/ lens system. What stands out to me is your comment that your GX8 plus Leica lenses "replaces the M240 as a travel and wildlife camera." I agree that the quality of Lumix/Leica is superb, but can I trust it as my sole system on an important trip? Specifically, my wife and I may do a safari in the Serengeti within a few months to celebrate an anniversary. I had been planning to take a Nikon 800e with 24-70 f2.8 zoom and a Nikon D800 set to DX with 80-400 VRII zoom; my wife would take the GX8 with Leica 12-60 and Leica 200-400. I envy her lighter load. Do you think I would regret it if I took the Lumix system only? I may want to blow-up prints to 12x18". Thank you for any insights and information. Your word has always been reliable. Tom P.S. I have the same lenses you list, plus the Leica 12-60mm zoom. In addition, I'm thinking of getting the new Leica super-wide zoom. Do you think the latter would be clearly superior to the Lumix super-wide zoom? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jon Warwick Posted June 15, 2017 Share #75 Posted June 15, 2017 Other cameras aside from my M240 = iPhone. Does the trick for much of my computer-screen images. Leica M7. Really does feel smaller and lighter than the M240, but the M10 has largely ended that difference. My M7 doesn't get much use though, given i typically reach for the M240 4x5 film .....it is in a completely different league in terms of resolution & looking "real" for very large prints. I use one of the best lenses ever made for LF film, which helps (110mm super symmar xl). With Acros 100 + 750mb+ drum scans, i'm nosing a 70"x55" wide print with no perceivable grain and just endless amount of natural-looking detail. I also find front-rise indispensable for many shots.
