I believe three things keep these older DSLRs still working at their advanced age: 1) They were very well built to start with, 2) they were fairly expensive to buy and thus well cared-for, and 3) their owners found them unwieldy once they got a smart phone, and they stopped using them. I am getting used to shooting a Canon R50 with RF and EF lenses, but I also shoot with a 7D, 40D, 70D, and 5D. I occasionally shoot film with an A-1, and I just purchased an EOS 650 and an FTb.

Very kind of you, thanks for watching! Based on my estimates and questions asked by prospective buyers, it's a decent amount of purchases that are for a 1st timers "real" photography camera. Probably 30-40%, and another large % is people that had the same camera, it broke they lost it, etc, and they want to replace with the same model. Nice on the A6700, I love shooting the E-Mount stuff.

Had a Nikon D200, a Nikon D7000 and bought a Canon D5 mkiii. It had a 18-105 canon which I think was a kit lens and a Sigma 10-20. I got it because it had an Aquatica housing with vacuum system and a brand new 9.25 glass dome port. I was told the D5 Mk4 fits that housing for the most part.

CCD was discontinued by all the high end camera makers (Nikon, Canon) years ago because they were much slower especially when using video. Still a fan of these videos. As to his question about what we shoot with these days I mostly use my Samsung Cell phone as I always have it with me and those built in cameras keep getting better and better, Some of them have 50 MB resolution.

Lovely setup! Lots of viewers on the comments are noting they shoot with the G9, I haven't used the the 42.5MM, is that the Nocticron?

@@pricklypearcamera yes sir. It’s a fantastic lens. I had to find a used Panasonic body because I wanted the aperture ring to work. Scored the G9 with a grip locally for $500

Cool, the 810 is a great camera with an excellent optical zoom. Have fun with it!

Very cool! Both great cameras, I used an X-T1 with the 18-55mm kit and a telephoto and it was a joy to shoot with.

I currently shoot a Nikon Z8 & Nikon ZF

Nikon Z50 with FTZ adapter and some good F-mount glass

I'm shooting with a Canon EOS 5D mk IV and a Canon EOS 3 film camera 😊. Oh and it's handy if you do give the European names also as I'm in the UK

Ooooh, that's a cool camera! I have used the 5d III quite a bit but not the IV, what's your favorite lens to shoot with? I will try to give European version names going forward, I just need to remember to do it!

@@pricklypearcamera fave lens, now that's tricky. I have 5 in total. The EF 24-105 F4 L lens, the 16-35 F4 L, the 70-200 F4 L, the latest nifty 50 and the last 35mm EF prime that came out. I think the nicest is the 70-200 for sure. The most useful though is the 24-105. Fave is probably the 70-200 as it's just so sharp and beautiful

@pricklypearcamera9151 The A7RIII is a realy nice camera but my A7RII keeps pumping out good images so I have no reason to upgrade. There are so many fantastic 3rd party e Mount lenses available today that it's crazy to avoid Sony all together. I actually have 5 Sony bodies and two Fujifilm bodies, with a plethora of vintage lenses. Photography is truly an addiction.

Haha, hopefully get some Pentax soon!

I just got my hands on a Ricoh GR (aps-c) and I can't wait to start using it as my EDC camera. Have been using the Ricoh GX100 which is great for its time, I hope I don't end up missing its zoom range (~24-72mm). If Ricoh makes a GX300 (a GR with that zoom range instead of a prime 28 or 45) it might be the first camera I buy new.

@pricklypearcamera

Nice! I so rarely find any nicer Ricoh cams in lots that I don't have much experience with the GX100 or GR, but I know they've got quite the following. That's pretty awesome that such a compact cam has an APS-C sensor. Hope you have fun with it!

I use a variety of Nikon DSLRs, a D200 for its CCD sensor, a D700 for its incredible exceptional Panasonic C-MOS sensor, a D500 for wildlife and a D850 for portrait and landscape. My daily companion however is a Nikon Z fc for it's portability and neatness.

Very nice! Love that group of cameras. D500 is sweet, have used and sold a few of 'em over the years. I have not however used any of the Nikon Z series, but looks super intriguing.

It comes across as very odd that you are talking about the values of these cameras when you are in fact setting the value. It's in your interest to communicate a value that is in line with your listing price on ebay. Appart from the value part I don't know what the purpose is of these video. The stats are easily found on wikipedia. No example pictures are shown. Digging a bit deeper we would quickly be made aware that our phones take better pictures than these old cameras.

R7 with a selection of different RF lenses and a bunch of adapted glass. Really digging the FD 35 F2 Concave at the moment. Use it all the time for product photography.
