very nice collection, my favorite cameras are 1. the iconic Hassi 500cm 2. Leica M2 or M3 3. the great landscape camera Linhof 617 4. the Nikon F2as

[@MattOsborne-MrLeicaCom]

Thanks.. yes the Linhof votes caught me off guard and I edited up reading up on them a lot. Let's just say stay tuned!

[@Iggy_Garcia]

grateful with life to have #1 and #3 and that's enough for me. Great video as always Matt!

[@MattOsborne-MrLeicaCom]

Thanks! Yes thanks all you need to have fun

[@desmontj6324]

I am owner of Nikon F3hp - and for me it is so pleasant to use_ For me it is the greatest camera - no doubt_ Greatings from cold moscow_

[@MattOsborne-MrLeicaCom]

Thanks and nice choice!

[@smartnbob3236]

I have a Bronica RF645, that is a great portrait camera, with the 45 mm lens and 65 mm lens it gives some great photos

[@MattOsborne-MrLeicaCom]

Great, yes I wish i'd found these in my early days (when everything was cheaper!) I know the lenses are said to be good.

[@monochromebluess]

Excellent run down. Thankfully my Nikon F3 and the Leica M6 were there or thereabouts at the top.

[@MattOsborne-MrLeicaCom]

Thanks! Yes 2 of the best for sure!

[@prios61]

In 35mm, I've tried the Leica iiig. But the lenses where very expensive. So I sold it and buy a Nikon SP2... and it was the begining... Now I have the FM2, FM3a, F3 and F100. Nikkor lenses are good too. At medium format it's a great jump... I start with TLR Minolta.😊

[@MattOsborne-MrLeicaCom]

Nice! You must have missed the cheap LTM lenses but the Nikons are nice too. I was using my FM3a yesterday

[@PhotoArtBrussels]

My favorite film cameras i own and use regularly: Pentacon Six TL (good lens selection); 6x6 and modular viewfinders Zeiss Super Iconta folder; 6x6 Kiev 4a rangefinders Olympus OM-4 Nikon F100 Canon EOS 1n

[@MattOsborne-MrLeicaCom]

Great! Love the 4a and I still have my old P6.

[@MorningNapalm]

Many of my favourites are present in this video in one way or another: Hasselbad C/F (my FC/M 2000 doesn't currently work, but I have a 500 CM on the way), Leica M6 (was sold on), Contax 645 (sold on), Hasselblad XPan (which I will sell, I love it, but I use it rarely), Olympus OM-1n/2n, Nikon FM, Nikon F3 (never owned, but who knows...), Rolleiflex 3.5E, Mamiya RZ 67, Linhof Technika (sold on), and I own a Chamonix 4x5 as well. I really should get back to film more, I have been mostly busy with my Fujifilm GFX50S recently.

[@MattOsborne-MrLeicaCom]

Nice thanks! Yes get back to film!

1:57 what does Matt say here…? 😂

[@MattOsborne-MrLeicaCom]

Modern for 1954?

[@jacovanlith5082]

Hahahahahahahahahahahaha ............... You must be joking. You love the Linhof, because of the fact they are a bit of a Leica. So you think a Linhof is quite compact. You are wrong by saying the Linhof cameras are made by German prtecision. "Linhof cameras are made by Bavarian precision; which standard is a bit higher", in my opinion. You might know the brands: Rodenstock lenses, Kraus Tiger tanks, Hofbrau beer, Compur shutters, BMW cars, Metz electronic flash, Perutz film and Dirndl dress. Linhof Technika cameras are made in four format sizes: 2 x 3 4 x 5 5 x 7 8 x 10 inch. The continental 6 x 9 9 x 12 13 x 18 18 x 24 cm double flm holders will fit into the international back of the cameras. As well as a single film holder, mounted in its insert. Plus Pola backs and roll film backs. Do not mess around with cm and inch sheet films and film holders. You need a 300 mm or a 360 mm lens for a portrait.

[@MattOsborne-MrLeicaCom]

Thanks Jaco! I had no idea how expensive they were! BUT.. I found a loop hole.. stay tuned ;)

[@filterfreephotography]

I love that you are not afraid to use the newer low cost Chinese lenses on your Leica bodies. Some of those would be fun to shoot. Last year, I was able to shoot a Hassy 500C/M with a polaroid back. Very fun.

[@MattOsborne-MrLeicaCom]

Nice! Yes as you know I happily use any lens on my M cameras if the optics are good. (Love the LLL lenses for their size)

[@ulyssesnathanialowen3831]

so surprised at this , I am Hassy shooter and not really seen alot of others with them out and about in London .. I know watching you tube , that people were late to explore the hassie , there were far few people showcasing he hassie compared to Pentax or mamiya and even rolleiflex , not doubt as square is such different format to the norm and niche , all though you can shoot 645 too .. along with polaroid .. and 35mm pano's and even digital if you loose your mind 😁 .. the hassie is a very versatile once you learn it , I am still surprised it beat Leica and others .. but will take the win.

[@MattOsborne-MrLeicaCom]

Yes in the last 10 yrs the Mamiya RZ etc were much more popular as the prices were a lot lower. Demand pushed those prices up. RZ is easier to focus but Hassy is a nicer size!

[@borisruzicka8104]

Matt, Mamia 7 (6), definitively beats hasselblad in terms of portability, ergonomics, rangefinders?.... But reliability! Hass is a clear winner.

[@MattOsborne-MrLeicaCom]

Yes I used my Mamiya 6 for weddings for speed but the Hassy is good long term.. Anything without batteries is always nice!

[@MarttiSuomivuori]

You have understood a very relevant thing: Nobody wants to look at a middle-aged talking head. going on and on. Your photos are a delight! I can see that you have a secret weapon that has nothing to do with your equipment. Personality.

[@MattOsborne-MrLeicaCom]

Thanks! Yes my old videos are talking head but I continue to learn and try to improve/make videos more watchable!

[@naaldvoerder]

You sold the best of the bunch, the SL66. Shame, especially after we got a taste of what you did with it....

[@MattOsborne-MrLeicaCom]

Yes great camera but too complicated for my little brain. I kept jamming it. I can use my 4x5 for the tilt look in future.

[@ribbitrocks]

i don't know Matt.... i find it hard to imagine the Mamiya 7ii in the setup didn't even get mentioned.... it's an amazing film camera, but i guess this is your favorites.... i get it.

[@MattOsborne-MrLeicaCom]

Thanks, this list was just the viewers favourites (see the previous video for my top 20)

[@neilpiper9889]

Medium format film cameras are my favourites. 35 mm cameras are toys to me. So. Mamiya RB 67, Mamiya 645, Bronica EC, Bronica ETRS, Bronica SQ, Bronica 67,Pentax 645; Pentax 67, Hasseiblad 1000f, Hasseiblad 500 cm. That's my ten. All SLRs as I hate rangefinder cameras. TLRs are fine. So Rolleicord and Rollieflex cameras are special for me as I love Schneider lenses.

[@MattOsborne-MrLeicaCom]

Thanks Neil! I've never used a Bronco but I hear their RF 645 camera was good too.

[@sunny16portraits]

Rolleiflex 2.8 yes add to cart 😀you should test one please...

[@MattOsborne-MrLeicaCom]

Ha thanks Thomas! I know some people love these. If I get a chance to use one i'll make a video for sure!

[@mrca2004]

My favs are the mamiya rb67 in 67 and my most amazing camera, the nikon f6 sold until october 2020! Auto focus, dead on matrix metering, 1/8000 shutter, works with my stunning nikon, zeiss and voigtlander glass, 5.5 fps. In 645, the mamiya 645 pro tl. For portraits I don't need auto focus and if I do, I'd use the f6 for those shots. With topaz gigapixel ai for upsizing, I and make stunning 16" prints and 20" with fine grain films like T grain.

[@MattOsborne-MrLeicaCom]

Thanks and nice! I like my RZ67 too, I have the F5 and others but like the manual FM3a for my preferred manual controls. Thanks about Topaz for upsizing. I never thought about doing that for film.

[@mrca2004]

@@MattOsborne-MrLeicaCom It allows great 16" or even 20"35 mm prints from fine grained b&w and portra. You sent me down the f5, f100 and finally f6 path. Just heading out to shoot the f6 and 100. Acros and portra. That f6 is one of my favorite cameras along with the RB67. I carry the RB for hours cross body on an optech strap. For street, dark slide out, film advanced, shutter lock off and no inadvertent shots because shutter not cocked. Can swing it up, cock the shutter that won't be forgotten because can't see out the viewfinder with out it, snap to focus with a split prism view finder, click. I use it for street and up to 3 hour walk abouts.

[@CAMSMORE]

Love this top 🔝 ten!! Only one of my favourites is not listed, but anyways I agree with the cameras in the list!! Regards, Matt

[@MattOsborne-MrLeicaCom]

Thanks Victor!

[@liselottefrejdig1112]

My favorites is Nikon FE2 and F100. When I was going to buy my first serious camera, the prize for Nikon FE and Hasselblad 500 C/M was the same (1978). I choosed the Nikon, because it had exposure meter. I regret that today. P.S. This little list is from cameras I have owned.

[@MattOsborne-MrLeicaCom]

Thanks. Wow I can’t imagine Nikon and Hassy being the same price! 1978 was the year I was born.

[@liselottefrejdig1112]

@@MattOsborne-MrLeicaCom And it was a complete camera; body, magazine A12, Planar 80/2.8.

[@toomanynegatives]

Crazy to me I’ve tried or owned almost every camera in your try before you die. Agree the sl66 is complicated but can produce amazing tilt shift images. Sold mine sadly. I also got sucked into the KZbinr mamiya 7ii hype. Borrowed one for a week from a friend for trip. I did not like it. I found myself wishing I would have brought my rolleiflex 2.8f instead. The mamiya 7 for me is a dull shooting experience and the camera build feels cheap. The images I got were ok but again I just missed my Rollie. Thanks for the great video Matt!

[@MattOsborne-MrLeicaCom]

Thanks and funny that we walked a similar path!

[@kalenderquantentunnel9411]

Your FE2 probably only needs a cleaning. My own camera, bought used 1996 started to develope a problem where it didn't want to start measuring and after some fiddling sprung back to life and now is working fine again during the last year. They just want to get used as intended.

[@MattOsborne-MrLeicaCom]

Thanks. No my FE2 is fine, the FM3a was just a long term purchase.

[@timstevens5769]

You have probably addressed this but, why do you have Chinese lenses on your Leicas? As with Hasselblads, Zeiss, and Nikon the primary point of Leicas is the optics. Thank you and again... Apologies for this if you have covered it before.

[@MattOsborne-MrLeicaCom]

Thanks. I’m not biased to lens brands and I use Leica for the cameras. Some Chinese lenses are near exact copies of rare Leica lenses so I love to use these (and others). Same great vintage optics without the collector lens huge price tag.

[@israelespinosamarquez5184]

Great video Regards from Mexico 🇲🇽 I don’t know when but I have to get the experience to try a Leica M2… it’s one of my dreams

[@MattOsborne-MrLeicaCom]

Thanks! Yes the M2 is a nice camera for sure.

[@ribbitrocks]

oops i think you did mention the Mamiya 7 / and love the Hassy SWC

[@MattOsborne-MrLeicaCom]

No problem! Yes I tried to like the Mamiya 7! The SWC is fantastic!

[@thomaspunchur3627]

Nice. My M3 double stroke is my most treasured range finder that I only drag out for special occasions due to its pristine condition....when I DO use it I devote all my attention to it and don't carry any other cameras on me when I have it in my hands! But I also have a Canon P and a Canon 7 that I will drag around with a different focal length lens on each. Sooooo, needless to see I was kind of happy to see your list. Apparently my taste isn't all that bad. :))

[@MattOsborne-MrLeicaCom]

Thanks Thomas! Yes very nice camera.

[@joegalka3378]

Hey Matt! I have a few Nikon F4s cameras. I love the size and how dense they are. Of course I can't get over the single focus point, thank god there is focus and recompose. What I also have is the Contax N1 film camera. I think it was their last film camera that was made in conjunction with Contax's first and only digital that didn't work that well. For the N1 you can get a mount adapter called the NAM-1 which allows you to adapt all the Contax 645 lenses. I did this with their f4 120mm macro and the f2.8 45mm. I love both lenses. I shoot aperture priority and let meter do its job. Both the F4s and the N1 have great meters.

[@MattOsborne-MrLeicaCom]

Thanks. Yes I keep my F4 too. I've not heard of the N1 so i'll check it. Thanks!

[@Nick_r]

Had a 500cm but found it too agricultural so ditched it for a Fuji GW690iii as the fixed lens was fine for me. Have a few of the others but default to the M2 most of the time.

[@MattOsborne-MrLeicaCom]

Thanks Nick, nice! I looked at those Fuji cameras a lot in the past too!

[@Nick_r]

@@MattOsborne-MrLeicaCom A tad quirky but similar work flow to Leica M cameras and easier to hold than Hasselblad. The film format is a step up from 6x6, reversal images are stunning in 6x9. If you can borrow one to try it might suit you.

[@MikeKleinsteuber]

Having now tried loads of cameras, lenses and software over many decades I can categorically say that there is absolutely no substitute for sensor size. That is the one thing that really makes a difference. Obviously lenses also have a huge impact on the final result but for the pics that you like Matt you really should try (if you haven't already) the Fujifilm GFX 50S. You'll love the images. Use the native GF lenses as they are the best and don't go for the S2 cos they removed the top dials which you'll appreciate. Stunning images which you'll fall in love with. The sensor (same as in the Hasselblad x2d) creates images with a real presence. Fantastic.

[@MattOsborne-MrLeicaCom]

Thanks Mike, I used to shoot MF Hasselblad (H camera) so I know the look they give. Sadly the amount of extra skin editing required offset the benefits so now I stick with FF. (For film however bigger is a lot of fun. More to come on that!)

[@MikeKleinsteuber]

@@MattOsborne-MrLeicaCom I know the problem. When I worked on one of the first HD BBC docs we used the new presenter and model Jody Kydd whose skin was terrible. It was alarming and after watching the first rushes we started backing off on her close ups lol

[@TobiasSpranger]

Oh Matt! You forgot the Polaroid SLR 680 - my fav film camera! ...literally the only film one I still shoot with.

[@MattOsborne-MrLeicaCom]

Hey Tobi, thanks! You'll have to bring it for a future trip!

[@flyingo]

I’m always amused when I hear the term “this camera takes beautiful photos”, because the camera itself is just a light tight box.. the photographer’s eye for composition and knowledge of exposure techniques are, in my opinion, the most important factors in image “quality”. Of course the lens characteristics are very important too. I’ve seen some amazing images created with simple, “cheap” cameras. That said, I love each of these cameras on your lists! Thank you!

[@MattOsborne-MrLeicaCom]

Thanks! Yes agree the lens is really important + ease of focusing/ reliability/ fun to use.

[@matthiasaronjonsson3066]

Damn those Hasselblad 645 photos at the end really hit different

[@MattOsborne-MrLeicaCom]

Right! It's a great camera system

[@michaelcase8574]

Fantastic lists, Matt! I'm old enough to remember when 99% of these csmeras were first introduced. I drooled over each of them as i read about them in Popular Photography magazine, and was lucky enough to own a few of them. If you ever have the opportunity to handle and or shoot with a Linhof, do! They even made some rather beautiful press cameras sort of like the Graflex Xl or Mamiya press.

[@MattOsborne-MrLeicaCom]

Thanks Michael! The Linhof votes send me down a rabbit hole. I dug out a 4x5 camera for my shoot yesterday to get back into it ..and let's just say.. stay tuned!

[@khanscombe619]

Currently getting to know the Pentax 67 (mlu). Using for fun table top product close up bellows work. It’s blooming brilliant. All the big boy feel of a Nikon F2 on bellows. So many fun accessories for it. The upright feel of an SLR.

[@MattOsborne-MrLeicaCom]

Great stuff!

[@marcmcvey6276]

M6 ttl for me. I love / hate this camera which makes it exciting to shoot with. I feel like I really 'earn' my keepers. Learning how to apply judgment to my image creation, especially for metering.

[@MattOsborne-MrLeicaCom]

Thanks Marc! Yes photography is boring if it's as easy as using an iPhone.

[@KristianWolfe]

Although some might not agree, the Fuji GF670 to me is SO much better than either the Mamiya 6 or Mamiya 7, not that either of those cameras are slouches. (I’ve used both and they are terrific.) Yes, the GF670 is an 80mm f/3.5 fixed lens camera, but most people use the 80mm on their Mamiya 7 or the 75mm on their Mamiya 6 as their main lens anyway. Yes, the GF670 is more on the fragile side, but then again, so are most cameras including both the Mamiya 6 & 7, which I find scratch up easily.

[@MattOsborne-MrLeicaCom]

Correct! I'm glad it's not just me. I wrote about this on the blog some years ago (bashing the 7 and saying the GF was better. Fujinon lenses are very good on all their film cameras - GF, GS645, GA645..

[@tick_magnetedschaper5611]

Hi Matt. I was super happy to see that the Nikon FM made this video! A sentimental favorite for me. I would love to have a Leica M3 but for now the cost scares me off. Maybe someday. Who knows. Thanks for another fun one.

[@rickyzagalo]

For all of those who don't like to go with what everybody elects as a must have, and appreciate a lot all those underdogs that can give us almost or exactly the same as the holly cows of the mainstream, I leave a few suggestions: On medium format, were the most praised cameras are Rollei, Zeiss and Mamiya, I suggest the Yashica Mat 124, a good example give us excellent contrast and sharpness. Or, if size and compactness matter, the NKK Wester Autorol, a beautiful made folder 6×6. On rangefinders, as an alternative to the various Leicas M, the Canon 7s, smoth usability, large and clear viewfinder, and 4 frame lines, and to the Barnack Leicas, the Leotax F, beautifully made. On modern auto focus SLR, the Nikon F4, or the Minolta Maxxum/Dynax/Alpha 7, all the features we can think in a pre-digital era, but with the best classical interface we could wish. And also the Nikon F100. On SLR, the Leica R models are superb cameras. Yes, they have the Minolta roots, but they don't feel the same. In fact, they really have a better Leica feeling and, most of all, access to the excellent Leica glass of the R prime lenses. Also, the Olympus OM one digit series. Recently, I was looking for the right travelling digital camera, a light compact all in one swiss knife, and went for the Leica D-Lux 7, and I can only highly recommend this model. Very good interface and handling, excellent lens and image processor. I compared it to the sibling Lumix, and the same shot, took at the very same moment, look very different. All this cameras give us full results for a fraction of the cost of the praised ones. Matt, thanks for another very entertaining video and all the best
