Before anybody starts listing all the cameras you should have mentioned, let me tell you you do a hell of a job in putting together your videos. Great stuff.

Thank you for the kind words, Matt!

When evaluating film camera options, one of the first things I consider are the batteries. Some are cheap and easy to find and others are expensive and a nightmare to use. A camera that needs no battery gets points.
