I think it's getting a little out of hand when I have multiple copies of the same thing...
Found an Olympus P&S at St. Vinny's ("base" model kind of like an XA but without a Zuiko lens...just an "Olympus Lens" 35/3.5)...a few weeks later, found the same cam at the same place for the same price. They must have gotten it about 2 days after I got the first one, judging by the date on the tag.
I'm still trying to wrap my head around the fact that I really only need one of everything...and if I get rid of the mediocre stuff (like all my 50mm lenses) I could get one really good lens...or get rid of the 80-320 and end up with a 300mm-ish prime...
This hobby sucks :lol:

Two Pentax bodies ;) Total film cameras number about 8 round these parts :D I figure...on a Pentax forum, the people who don't care about the non-Pentax cameras outweigh the people who do...
I got a good deal on the ME Super though...I wouldn't be losing money ;)
Ahhh...dang. As far as my MX goes...that "cold dead hands" phrase comes to mind :lol:

Thinking about selling the ME Super and 50/1.7 :( Free up some money and space. Too many 35mm cameras means not enough time to give each love :(

My family is a lot smaller (and cheaper) than pretty much everyone's :/
Not shown: the lenses in my sig, which are used on film and digital, of course ;)
My "go to" film camera is the MX...great manual features, easy to use, compact, bright viewfinder.
Favorite lens on full frame is the 50mm range...any flavor, any speed.
Best film at the moment is Ilford HP5+, although, I will be testing other 100/400 speed films to find a cheaper, "snapshot" alternative. Or I might end up rolling my own HP5. $3.50/roll is killing me :(
