Anyone else miss getting out with friends like before Covid?  LOL Yeah I know so cliche thought.  

OK, so what about that title?  

What is the oldest camera you use regularly?  It can't be a camera in a collect you have collecting dust.  I has to be a camera you use on a regular basis.  

Mine:  I still use my old Nikon D7000 which is now 10 years old.  In camera world I think that is old.  :toocrazy:

What about you?

I retired my film cameras, so the oldest D in operation
at this time is my trusted D3S… 11 years old.

In D world it is old but not in camera world! :P

Light is free… capturing it is not!

Oldest camera that I still use isn't that old.  It's a Nikon D800, which I want to say is 7 years old.

Oldest I still use is a Canon XTI. Shoots decent pictures and won’t break the bank if it bit the dust due to weather or accident. It was my second digital DSLR.

I am on my third Canon 40D.
One packed up after a fall.
One I passed on to my daughter to learn the basics.
I found a very cheap one for sale. 
I work very rough with my daily work camera. 
It seems like the 40D just does not want to die. 
It was launched 2007 and replaced by the 50D a year later.

The oldest one I use but I wouldn't say regularly is my Minolta Dimage A7 from about 2002. I still use it for infrared images because it works pretty well with the infrared filter.

Well my oldest camera isn't that old, but it's a Nikon D7100.  It's a great crop sensor camera.

I used my Canon A-1 Pro about a year ago. Still took great pics. Purchased in 1979.

I don't use it much, Canon AE-1, 1978-9.  My 'new' one is a Sony A-100, 2006.

I have a Sony FD-95 that I bought in 2000. I last used it about a month ago. It's on it's third set of batteries, records to floppy disks, so I've had to buy a 3.5" floppy disk to USB reader to continue using it (bought the reader about 3 years ago). There are still occasions when smaller file size Jpeg files are more convenient and suit the need, though the FD-95 is a bit of a box camera by today's standards.
