My favorite camera at present is my old Nikonos underwater camera. I have recently been experimenting with it, shooting IR film underwater with some interesting results.

I also have had some fun with my old Leica M2 attached to a visoflex and using a 125 mm f.2.5 lens

My other cameras are all just tools, so I have no emotional attachment to them at all.

My favorite camera is the Hasselblad HD-4 with a 80mm lens. But I'll settle for the Nikon D5000 / D80 that I already own.

My favorite camera is a Pentax ist DS, it only has 6 megapixels and is a small lightweight camera, I carry my camera gear in a backpack, so size and weight is important to me, I prefer the size of the Pentax to Canon (Canon cameras are bulkier) and the specification of my ist DS is better than that of Nikons recent models as they don't have a depth of field preview option, which I find really strange from one of the top camera manufacturers (not my own opinion, that's what all the children on here think).

I recently bought a Nikon D5100 because the price was good and it is a decent camera, I still prefer my Pentax though (and it's nearly 10 years old) I can't understand this because Pentax cameras aren't very good (according to the children on here) my 30 years service in advising professional photographers on material and equipment doesn't mean anything because children see Canon and Nikon on TV and that's the best… Now it's your turn!

Pentax, but I can count beyond two.

If it's only about the camera, my favorite is Pentax, but I use Canon because of the lenses which I need are made only by Canon (and Nikon), and I chose Canon because it was cheaper (as compared to Nikon) when I bought it years ago.

Neither. My favorite camera is my Pentax K200d. Why? Because the world is not divided into C's and N's only. Besides, neither of those two will work seamlessly with my collection of old screwmount lenses anyway.
