    Short explanation on the Revue cameras: There was a big camerastore in Germany called Fotoquelle and the cameras are only rebranded cameras. The ones in the video were chinon cameras rebranded as revue and they selled them as `their own´. Most of the time they had an pentax K mount. They´re very cheap and not even that bad.

    I had a Revueflex AC2 that was pretty nifty aside from the sensitivity dial being in Din. I already had an FM2 though so I sold it to some teacher a while ago and kept the 50mm f1.4. It's not quite as nice as my pentax-m 50mm f1.4 but it's still built very nice.

    Revueflex was the house brand of german wearhouse "Quelle", basically Amazon before Amazon existed. Unfortunately they missed the transition to online wearhouses and seized in 2009 after a fusion with german superstore Karstadt. There's tons of these floating around in Germany. I have one. They're decent cameras and pretty reliable!

    I think its less about how the pictures look quality wise and more about how your process changes depending on how differently each camera feels and operates, thats how it is for me too, plus I think you can justify having a few bodies for different lens mounts and if you get into point and shoots with fixed lenses... yeah, I think there are a lot of reasons to have a few options

    It would be great if I had been able to stop at 5-6 cameras 🤣 Well, every camera system comes with different lenses so I guess one could argue that the photos do look different but that's not the reason for having many cameras (at least for me). It might be that I've developed a severe case of GAS since I watch grainydays regularly but I suppose it's just - as someone already mentioned - the different looks and feels. I like to just choose one and go out. Sometimes I choose based on features (auto/manual modes, size etc.).

    My fave M42 lens so far has been some mamiya glass actually! I got a stupidly cheap 50mm f2 auto mamiya for my shitty sears TLS and it's a real fun lens. Gets nice bokeh wide open as well, best way I can describe it is a bit like an oil painting. Got mine for 15 and I don't see em for much more typically lololol Also those revue cameras are pretty decent, if that's the M42 stop-down metering body that I remember reading about. I think it was one of the few late-M42 mount bodies that could do full program mode by stopping the lens down a moment before raising the mirror to take a reading and determine a shutter speed. Really want one of those

    Bullshit, the Zorkis are absolutely fantastic. I own a Canon P, which also is great, however the rangefinder needs to be recalibrated rather often. I dropped my Zorki 1c 6 feet onto a rock (I got a good shot though). Apart from a small ding in the bottom plate everything was fine and it still works perfectly. The rangefinder didn't even have to be calibrated. Beat that for build quality!^^

    Polaroid SX-70. At an auction, it would most likely be a Model 1 version, they were the most common. But they had a plastic coupler attached to the motor that would break easily and render the motor winding continuously. Would need CLA or a handy user to figure out the repair. From first hand experience... it's... involved.
