My Favorite Camera of All Time

[@OneMonthTwoCameras]

I FORGOT TO INCLUDE THE RICOH GRIII! I did NOT sell it. Also, join me in the armpit mic challenge! Always styling, guys :P

[@nedkelly2035]

I had one. Very sharp lens, very compact, but not reliable. Ended up selling it to a repairman.

[@kovre]

You forgot the best one 😅

[@x_Rott_x]

Have you shot with a Fuji xt4 with the simulations? It's my main at the moment and I really enjoy the new simulations I can put in. I edit all my raw in capture one but it keeps the simulation settings in it. And it's so much more recipes than my Fuji x-e2 but I love that camera to. I shot with it for 9 years. U have a wonderful collection. So many 😂 I'm hoping to add slowly cause now I'm seeing alot more differences with cameras in all sorts of ways. Love your channel

[@ssoqboss]

​ @kovre It is so much the best, that even not worth to mention as it assumed by default.

[@SoSaMin1]

@OneMonthTwoCameras I also own the Nikon ZF...what made me pick it up over other cameras here recently is the 26mm F2.8 lens...That lens and that camera is the definition of chef's kiss 🙂 Everyone raves over the 40mm (and it is a great lens...but a little to perfect for me 🙂) but please try it with the 26mm...trust and believe...you will not put it down 🙂

[@chipmiddleton1439]

I discovered the Lumix line about a year ago. I dismissed them until I used one. I am in love. My choice was the GX85 & Pano/Leica 15mm lens. Beautiful.

[@tukaetaka]

gx85 is superb little camera. I bought it for my EDC with the panny 15/1.7 and 42.5/1.7. Unexpectedly my wife shared my opinion and unashamedly took it from me 😂

[@snappiness]

I film on a g85! I love m4/3. So underrated. Keep it a secret. Nobody tell anybody :P (intro was insanely cool btw)

[@SMGJohn]

I thought you were a Sony kind of guy filming with the A9 III because global shutter means every frame is award winning.

[@OneMonthTwoCameras]

I didn't realize that is what you were filming with! Thank goodness no one knows :P

[@ThatguyRiz]

Is the g95 better?

[@MrBrandonLau]

@@ThatguyRizpretty similar. I almost upgraded my g7 to a g85 and then a g95, but decided the g9 was worth the extra money and I was not wrong. I use a 25mm 1.7 lens 90% of the time

[@emmfdez812]

​@@SMGJohn actually he looks like a Fuji guy! Great content tho

[@cameralabs]

Really enjoyed that, great photos and collection, albeit a little surprise at the end! That said, the G9 really is a very solid camera - I loved it when I reviewed it, apart from its slightly sensitive shutter release, although maybe it just wants to shoot! Also one of the first cameras in its class to shoot 4k 60, something that's still not on everything. Panasonic has some great heritage cameras, I really wish they'd make a new GM. I saw one last week as part of a Lumix timeline, representing 2013!! It's over a decade old and is still so amazing!

[@martingreenberg870]

Hoping Panasonic will continue their GX line.I imagine a GX8 with PDAF. Mask On Nurse Marty(Ret)

[@barclayjb]

I am so happy that there are camera freaks like you out there,... and that you make such fun videos. You are a gem.

[@OneMonthTwoCameras]

YOU'RE the gem. Thanks for all the support!!

[@bastian.michel]

Wow, didnt expect the G9, completely amazed me.🤯 I I've been telling everyone about this camera for years. My hands know it inside out. If you wake me up in the middle of the night, I can take a photo before I even open my eyes. The ergonomics are perfect, it has 4K 60p, super-fast autofocus, awesome video quality, responsive touch screen, much praised menu system, a great screen, an unbelievable electronic viewfinder, tactile buttons, it's durable, has incredible in-body image stabilization, and so much more... Plus, there's a perfect selection of lenses. If you're considering this camera - yes, go for it! And if you need something smaller, the GF9 (GX800) offers the same image quality in a 269g body (just half a pound).

[@christopherbgriffith]

A friend of mine used the G9 and absolutely loved it. I think it's a total sleeper hit of a camera, and the G9 II is even more impressive. Panasonic doesn't get nearly enough credit for the work they're doing in the mirrorless space.

[@SMGJohn]

Panasonic cameras have always been pretty darn good for what they do ever since GH2, the GH3 and GH4 specially, really did up their game tremendously even in the photo area. I think people have this mindset though that a small sensor = bad images, and its been perpetuated for eons on the internet by "influencers" that talk a lot about cameras, but really do very little using it, so people are herded into this mindset that bigger sensor means they automatically get good pictures. Thats why in the olden days they just said LAL. Lighting, Area and Lens. Thats all you need, nothing else matters, its just a tool in the end, if it can do some things better, IBIS for example is arguably a game changer in photography since Olympus E-3 and yes I know Minolta did it first but Olympus did it better. People seem to forget that the most sold interchangeable lens cameras on the planet, are all crop sensors, specifically APS-C. Even today, the biggest number movers are APS-C bodies, I kid you not.

[@bastian.michel]

So true.

[@hfmusicandmediagroup]

Panasonic G9 is a beast. Love that camera over my A7rII.

[@williamburkholder769]

Lumix designs some of the most sensible cameras you could ever use. The menus are simple and intuitive. Buttons are mostly in the right places. Now that they have moved to hybrid phase detect AF and put fantastic stabilization in their bodies, they have created a SUPERB user experience. The fact that the G9 II is based on the same body as the full frame S5 IIX is great for those who want both systems (Micro 4/3 and full frame) without having to learn two different bodies.

[@keithnisbet]

I have 2 G9's and just got a G9ii ( $1398 brand new with $500 trade in bonus rebate from BH). All are so well built, feature packed, and kept current with firmware updates. Each G9 paid $998. Total for all three less than the cost of many new FF cameras. Plus, there is no need for bigger expensive lenses. All my photo and video needs are covered. 😊

[@seanb480]

I was recently shooting an art show when another photographer there had the G9. He let me try it out, and yes, I loved the metal body. Gorgeous. Compact. Amazing.

[@mavericke1985]

The voigtlander 17.5 0.95 was my absolute FAVORITE when I had it paired with an Olympus EM5 Mii - It created beautiful pictures. I used the focus highlighting feature and could still give it to anyone and grab a banging photo.

[@n8-creates]

Same! Same Thought I was the only one who had that combo!

[@bublt4me]

The Voigtlander MFT Noktons are my absolute favorite lenses on any system. Consistently and aesthetically soft wide open with the entire series and sharpens up when stopped down, they like the swiss army knife. Of them all, I loved the 17.5mm and 60mm.

[@NPJensen]

Wonderful camera collection. My own includes the Panasonic GX-8 and Olympus E-M5 iii, that I almost only use for concert photography with lenses like the Olympus 45mm f1.8, 12mm f2 , Sigma 30mm f1.4 and Panasonic 40mm f1.7 and 50mm f1.7. I also have a Leica Digilux 3 - my only four/thirds camera - and I love it. My most recent addition is a Sony NEX-5N. I can't get over how small that camera is compared to the sensor size, and I love the lenses, I have for it (I'm even considering getting a C-mount to Sony E adapter and pick up a few ultra wide angle lenses as well). In fact I like it so much, I'm tempted to get an A5100 - because I found one for sale at a store I trust for half price compared to what they go for at MPB. Not to mention the rest of my collection of cameras - digital as well as a substantial film camera collection (+ a lot of film in the freezer).

[@SIQmai]

Going back to your instagram and looking at your photos with the knowledge of the camera, and looking at the comments, it truly shows that: 1) obv, no bad cameras, and 2) we have no way of guessing what camera took what picture nowadays because there are so many and because they're all good! Many ppl are surprised here that it's the G9, including me tbh, because there are other cameras that first come to mind when you talk color especially, but it really shows that it's the photographer, not (less) the camera.

[@c0smoKram3r]

Yep and as Ali mentioned in the video...she shoots raw and edits. We're (mostly) not seeing SOOC JPEGs.

[@JeevesTCW]

Loving the love for the G9. I always thought I wanted a smaller camera and have the Oly EM5iii as a back up .. but the viewfinder, ergos and balance with bigger lenses on the G9 is sublime. That viewfinder .. amazing

Thank you very much! The G9 is also my favorite and I thought I was the only one... I never imagined the end of the video.

Hahah, your daughter flipping her hair all around in the car when you were showing the Panasonic Lumix G9 filming was an exact dopplegamger of my oldest son when he was a bundle of energy. He would go nuts like that when he was struggling to stay awake. I'm realyl happy to see the lineup of your fun cameras. I need to go shopping again for some unique cameras.

[@OneMonthTwoCameras]

😂😂😍

[@Gregulah]

I've been on a bit of a camera journey from little point and shoot digital through to the micro four thirds system (current). I've ended up with my current favourite camera being the EM1 mk2 for the handling as much as the image quality. It was interesting to find that the G9 (mk1) was your favourite overall as the EM1 and G9 are almost like cousins in the MFT space. Video's are great as always, love the way you embrace the differences (no bad camera's) and intricacies of the camera you review.

[@OneMonthTwoCameras]

Thank you and so glad you enjoyed! The EM1Mkii is an EXCELLENT camera and one I actually owned as well. Both stellar picks.

[@Gregulah]

@@OneMonthTwoCameras I have a slight variation on your favourite small mft camera as well opting for the E-PM2. The tiny Lumix wonder is a little hard to find for a reasonable price here in Australia, that and I love that I can get a min shutter setting on my Olympus (just about any mft Olympus) with the flash sync trick. Makes the lack of proper dials a non issue in Aperture mode.

[@karmagroovy]

I was thinking the same thing about the EM1 and G9 being very similar and competitors, so to speak. I recently procured the EM1 mk2 specifically for travel and wildlife shooting and so far I'm loving it.

[@Gregulah]

@@karmagroovy I had been renting an EM5.3 and realised I didn't much like the handling on anything but the small primes. I took the plunge and picked up the EM1.2 and it was definitely the right choice, its only really bigger in the grip (which makes the handling so much better) and the dials and everything else feels much better. I do miss the silver and black design of the 5 though.

[@JohnOpie]

O M G...I have been so tempted so many times by the G9...instead I went with the OM1 on a recent trip to Japan. So happy that you are keeping the Sigma Quattro H, I continue to use the Quattro DP1 and DP0. I wish I could find a DP3...I have no less than 12 cameras at this point, including my lovely Pentax 6x7 with 45mm, 105 and 300 (and 2x telextender). Love your channel and keep being who you are and what you do!

[@twinflametaurus]

I was blown away seeing how good some older nikons are.

[@OneMonthTwoCameras]

[@theangrymarmot8336]

Solid choices! I also absolutely love my G9. I bought it last year, to replace my aging Sony Nex-7 as my main digital camera and I have been thrilled with the G9. I also bought an old GF1 to use with the G9 and really like that little guy too - takes awesome pics. I have relegated my much used Nex-7 to scanning duty for my film cameras.

[@OneMonthTwoCameras]

OH MAN that GF1 brings back so many warm feelings. Been thinking about it. Had it twice before and it's so slow but so wonderful.

[@mauriceschoenen]

The GF1 is great and sooo cheap.

[@mauriceschoenen]

And I love the aluminum body.

[@kerc]

A feature I love about the Lumix LX5 is the MultiFilm or MF mode, where it shoots in up to three different filters in sequence. I usually shoot natural and dynamic monochrome. It's fun and useful!

[@grahamniven]

How a camera makes you feel is so much more important than the spec sheet. My personal favourite is the Fujifilm X-T10, these days I mostly use it with the very cheap TTArtisan 25 f2 manual focus lens. Love the compactness, the cuteness, the feel, the simplicity, the ease of use, the image quality.

[@tukaetaka]

I have the same combo. Fits in my coat pocket! But after half a year with it I still find focusing it difficult. I have tried all focus aids it has still. I just wish it had a bit higher resolution screen or viewfinder so I can tell if it is focused. On my panasonic manual focusing is way easier

[@rnil0]

That intro was masterful! As much as I want you to review the G9, I also don’t want you to blow up the micro 4/3 sleepers so we can keep getting them for cheap! I’ve shot that .95 Voigtlander and it’s sooooo dreamy! Would love to see a review of the crappy digicams. There’s a Gateway digi that the digicam.love crew is currently loving that sounds similar to the Vivicam you highlighted.

[@OneMonthTwoCameras]

The camera is so fun and could make a really goofy review so putting it on the list ;)

[@andrewcrossley2448]

What a fascinating roll through history……I started with my grandfather’s box brownie in the early 1960s think it was from the late 1920s or early 1930s. It was 120 roll film. My first serious’ camera was a Praktica L which needed an external light meter. I started developing and printing black and white 35mm at school photo club in the early 1970s and studied photography as an option at school. Looking at the modern Fuji XT5 reminds me of that simple to use system. Like you I’m a bit of a hoarder. The best cameras I’ve (still got) are the tiny Minox 35GT (superb lens), Fuji 6x9 - massive clockwork beast, the wonderful first generation Canon EOS1 and power winder (masterpiece of ergonomics and so easy to use), a full Bronica ETRS system (fantastic lenses each with their own shutter) and the super heavy Canon 5D mk3. So with lots of pro and prime Canon glass (all still working well) and their tiny EOSM kits, why have I considered getting the new X100VI? It reminded me of the old Praktica and the simplicity of the tiny Minox. I have one but not used it as yet, as I can return it for free if unused. Yes it’s very pretty and I’m sure takes great photos but all the extras needed makes it very expensive. I’m thinking that a new XT 5 with the super versatile 16-80 f4 is a better option for a forthcoming trip touring in China - an all in one small, high quality kit. Canon pro kit is too heavy, M5 a possibility with a few lenses but no 4K video and autofocus. I guess I could just use my iPhone 13 Pro……like I just did in Cyprus……with a small rig, lights and good external mic it does great video……

[@matthewbrown1173]

Love these choices. The youtube algorithm also popped up an older one of your videos and your thoughts about medium format systems echoed mine so editing those out lol. Had a bunch. TL;DR Great results from 6x6/7, but ultimately never felt compelled by the cameras themselves. For me the Pentax 67 was the closest to being a winner almost entirely off of the 105mm f2.4 takumar. Instead of my long ramble, I'll share my favorite; my grandfather's OM-2Sp camera. The very last OM-2 they made, much more electronic than the earlier ones. It went all around the world with him when he was in the Navy. I managed to track down one of the really rare series 2 screens for it, and significantly expanded his lens collection with a few of the all time best 35mm lenses ever made; the 50mm f2.0 and 90mm f2.0 auto-macros, the 50mm AND 55mm f1.2 lenses, and 28mm f2.0, probably my all time most used lens.

[@TheLarkymarky]

I have soooooo many cameras and each one has a 'feel' or 'look' to it's images. My favourite crop DSLR is the Nikon D70, Full frame Canon 5D MK1 and my all time favourite walkaround camera is the Olympus XZ-1. Your videos are great, honest and heart felt. 😊

I, too, like my lumix G-9 camera and the nikon d850. All things have a place and purpose. Grins. Take care, From Tulsa Oklahoma.

[@TuinleiBob]

Thanks for the lovely video. I went a bit nuts with camaras over the last years as well but the G9 is also my favourite of them all. I 'upgraded' to the GH6 but it feels like a brick and has the charm of it too. Funny they added frame markers to the G9 and not to the GH5. I prefer a flip up screen now so mostly take my GX9 and S1 outside. Recently I made the jump (again) to Fujifilm. The X-T3 is also very charming and it made me go for an X-T5 a few weeks ago. For lenses, the last MFT I bought was a rather cheap 14-140 2nd hand. It is absolutely perfect for street photography, and combined with my Leica 8-18 it gives me a full range in 2 lenses. The 14-140 is more than sharp enough and it pushed away my Leica 12-60 because of the range, you should try it :-)

You nailed it would agree, I've used many system over the span of 20 years and favorite camera is Leica SL2-s.

[@null0byte]

I have the X-T2. Coming from Canon DSLRs, it's a big step down in size, but I found that I LOVE it. It's a bit cramped, but a hot shoe thumb rest solved that. It's gorgeous and extremely solid feeling. Plus, the manual dials are everything if youre like me and looking for a camera to mimic the experience of shooting B&W on an old Canon F-1.

[@magnusnedregard6857]

Just found your channel, love your enthusiasm, and your lovely collection. I have multiple favourite cameras too!

[@OneMonthTwoCameras]

Aw lovely! Thanks for stopping by!

[@rentedtux1883]

Mine is still the Olympus E1. Cant top it....a close second is the Conon 5d classic. Ive tried all the high end stuff. Nothing compares

[@OneMonthTwoCameras]

Both absolute classics.

[@jschoenzy9416]

I was waiting for someone to give the E1 some love in the comments. Love mine, its so much fun.

[@pinikpikantv3555]

Am a hoarder as well. Watch, EDC, Multitools, selvedge jeans, vintage but camera fascination started recently. Got plenty of e mount lenses until I trimmed them down then started using smaller form factor and I am loving it. Needed to try the vintage colors from m43 and now been wanting to know which one but seems very hard to decide.

[@Gonzuller1992]

The Nikon D700 produced the best files I've ever seen. Love the color from this sensor. It was too heavy to carry on trips, so now I shoot with the Panasonic GX9 (G9 for birding). Also had a DP2 Merrill. The files from that camera were amazing.

[@williamburkholder769]

Amazing collection! I am probably a stick-in-the-mud. I buy few cameras and keep them forever. I still have a Nikon FTn from 1973 and a Nikon F3HP from 1984. But my go to is Micro 4/3 - still a GH4, although I'm about to pull the trigger on a G9 Mark II. My twin kids have a GH4 and a GH5. Like you, I prefer the look of Micro 4/3 over full frame. I have the same zooms you do, plus a 42.5 Lumix. After nine years, the technology has evolved enough that the G9 II is a no-brainer. I need the 25.2 MP sensor for copying slides, negatives, prints, and artwork with my 30mm Lumix Macro, and I need the video features, because my twins and I make short films on occasion. Interestingly, you found the Fuji S5 to be inconsistent from copy to copy. I never had an older Fujifilm camera I liked. No two "identical" bodies were the same! The XT-1 and later mostly fixed that problem.

I still have the original casio camera watch which I bought when I was in uni. As I recall there were multiple iterations after that, even one when colour. The original silver looks the best though.

[@SilatShooter]

Great start to the video, really captures all the chatter on gear opinions here on KZbin. Loooove your collection of cameras and why you enjoy each of them. Your favorite surprised me. I love tiny cameras too, especially interchangeable lens cameras. Fun Video! Look forward to more of your content!

[@MarcoBrianza]

Thank you this was the right excuse for me to get one on eBay! Now we want a dedicated video for it

[@markusbolliger1527]

The most practical and versatile camera I ever had and have now is the Canon R6 Mk 2. Maybe not the best in every discipline, but it has no weaknesses and does everything quickly I want it to do. It's a real all-rounder.

[@tomatomaeg]

WOO CONTAX G1! Amazing little camera. Loving the 45mm lens too. Resisting buying all the adaptors and helical focus housings for it, bit pricey. Maybe someday. Oh yeah, found this channel from the Mamiyamigos podcast 🤝

[@monduli]

So glad I stumbled on your channel and so glad too that I'm not the only one who hoards cameras! You've got a new subscriber.

[@annie291180]

Wow your favourite is the same as mine! ❤ I totally agree it's a great camera,I absolutely love it and got if new as soon as it came out!

[@OneMonthTwoCameras]

It's so good!

[@shanksisnoteventhatstrongbruh]

m4/3 is also a lovely mount to experiment with old/retro/ancient lenses thanks to the huge amount of adapters made for the mount, surprising to not see the something like the GX9 here but the G9 (original, not G9II) makes perfect sense, only issue with that cam is video autofocus but everything else is as close to perfect as it can get even more so considering you can get it for ~$550 dollars in excellent condition. PD: Also surprised to not see the LX100/100II mentioned since you mentioned not wanting to sell it again in your review.

[@TheWatcher-1960]

I just bought a Panasonic Lumix LX5 on eBay 2 weeks ago as I wanted a daily carry camera I could toss in my bag & take everywhere as I hate using my phone for photography. I only take my Canon R50 when I'm purposely going out to shoot some street photography, however, with the convenience of having a compact camera on me all the time I'm amazed how much I'm using it. A great little camera. And for street photography it's so discreet too.

[@OneMonthTwoCameras]

That’s wonderful!!!

[@uhadonejob]

It is easy to forget the GRs. When I was getting back into photography I had a big research showdown between the G9 and the Olympus Em1.3. Agonizing. The Olympus won out because video wasn't as important to me and the autofocus/colour science/size pulled me over. My collection includes 16 cameras and more 4/3 and m4/3 glass than I care to think about.

[@avarmadillo]

I love the G9. What a great camera. The G9II is really great as well. Presently own an S5IIX. But the MFT G9 is fabulous. I miss it.

[@TheCruisinCrew]

Nice collection! I'm looking for a full featured every day carry and I narrowed it down the Olympus E-M5 III... it has phase detect AF, EVF, flippy screen, IBIS, 4k, Microphone port and is weather sealed and much lighter than my A7rII... saving up some cash for it (because I'll also need some m43 lenses) ;)

[@brucecggallagher1949]

A great selection...I understand your rational for each camera. Thanks for sharing. Cheers from Victoria, BC

[@Mrgijs]

I didn't expect the G9 at all but I'm not surprised, I absolutely love that camera for so many reasons, the grip and controls, the features and the output. Although the G80 to me felt even more ergonomically perfect, perhaps by having less features, the G9 ticks all the boxes of being the most versatile perfect camera and I can never get rid of it.

[@MandrakeCigars]

Wow, S5 Pro. I haven't heard that name in a while. I had one back in the day when I had a D700. I remember that the D700 was so much better but that S5 had a bit of a cult following so I wanted to try it. I'd probably have just as many cameras as you if I didn't have the tendency to sell when I bought the next latest and greatest. I only have one digital and one film camera.

[@lunafilms3684]

Love your videos❤️Nikon D700 is great; I also use the D800e with the Nikkor AIS 105 f2.5...takes stunning images.

[@MikeLikesChannel]

Big fan of the RX100m7. 24-200mm in your pocket. Would like to see one last effort with USB-C but I think it’s over. Next 1” Sony sensor will be on a smartphone.

[@Rockofaz]

Thank you for your extraordinary presentation. I love my two N1 V1s too. G9 17.5 &42.5 V-lenses, I'm going to buy one and those lenses. Thank you, Thank you, Thank you. Like my Z-50. The Zf, I'll await the Z90. You are great.

[@CRJines]

I'm still shooting the D-700 with AIS lenses, or my FM. 135, 50, 24 lenses.

[@rydinorwin]

Great advice. I am Fujifilm XT-2, I wish I had known about the G9. M4/3 makes a lot of sense! Really good 'tube! Thank you !

[@christinasmith9032]

Fun to hear your thoughts on a wide variety of cameras. I just sold the g9! Also sold my fujifilm xt-1 . Such great ergo on both, I love ergo, but they were too big, and got the gr iii. I might buy them back, lol. My boyfriend has a minolta and that’s staying.

[@srt10acrx]

I thought you sold the Leica! I was so sad! Glad to know it's still bopping around

[@julianweigand3100]

ohh got the lumxi s5, love it almost the same, but fullframe, better autofocus and lovely colors

[@wearetrackclub]

This is so fun! Loved seeing all your different cameras and super interesting to hear your thoughts on all of them! 🙌🤩

[@edbarkowski4455]

Hoping for a video on your G9! Just bought a used one and enjoying it quite a bit.

[@juliette-mansour]

Hi, new here... I feel EXACTLY the same way about the Zf. I use vintage lenses and keep it as an artistic tool for special use only. Glad I found you! I don't know many other women who collect cameras as much as me! Question: If you didn't shoot video would you still choose the same for your #1?

[@eatswodo]

So happy to see that your Sigma sdQH made the cut. I recently decided that my sdQ is going nowhere, for very much the same reasons you stated. Besides, I absolutely love the 18-35/1.8 ART lens I have for it, so I have to keep the camera :)

[@OneMonthTwoCameras]

Absolute never parting with it :)

[@AlGreenLightThroughGlass]

I thought I was the only one, not obsessed with ff narrow depth of field and clinical sharpness.
