I still have my old Minolta X-570 camera...my first "grownup" purchase with money I saved working in high school. I shot mostly in slides back than and havw two binders full of the silly things. Now I use a Canon Eos Rebel Xsi, which I also really like except for a couple minor quirks. Here's a link to my flickr page, and a few select shots of random stuff I've taken over the years. You might already have seen the VX/offroading ones so I won't post those again.
To start with is a much older camera I have. I shot one roll of film many years ago with it...it takes nice pics. And I believe it is still all in working order. I will have to take a better pic of the whole thing...the lens folds in to the body for carrying with a hinged door and bellows mechanism:

My last real vacation, back to England (Dorset) in 2007...I do miss it sometimes:

Ok, well I have taken up too much space and too much of your time...just browse my flickr page for the rest if you like. Great idea for a thread! I am inspired to get out and shoot more. Got a little money for my b-day...thinking that the nice Canon EF 50mm f/1.4 lens might be a nice addition for taking even more pro-like shots.
