Kit

I use a Nikon D40 for all my digital work, its a great little workhorse of a camera, its on the budget end of the market but has all the features of its more expensive brothers. As a learning tool it a wonderful easy camera to use, and i’d well recommend one.
For more information i’d recommend you visit kenrockwell.com or wikipedia.
Additional Kit:
- Nikkor 18-55 standard lens
- Nikkor 55-200 telephoto lens
- Nikkor 35mm prime
- Nissin 622 flashgun
- Manfrotto tripod
Olympus OM-10

The OM10 is a recent aquisition and i’m still learning how to use it properly. Its a fully manual film camera that was manufactured between 1979 and 1987, so its almost as old as I am. Its pretty basic but it does everything that I need an i’m having a lot of fun using it.
For more information you can check out Camerapedia or Wikipedia.
Additional Kit:
- 35mm prime lens
- 50mm prime lens
- 70 – 150mm telephoto lens

Another recent aquisition is a Chinon CM-4s (circa 1982), this was in reasonable condition with the exception of the film rewind knob w was missing. In true student fashion, i’ve managed to bodge a temporary repair (*cough* with a paperclip), until a replacement part can be aquired.

Not really a camera per se, but does pack a nifty 8.1 megapixel camera.
