Photography is a hobby that has evolved in the last few years. Usually I take pictures of stuff that gets in my way. I try to carry at least one camera at all times. I have gone through a bunch of cameras during this time, trying to find what suits me the best. My cameras in order of purchase, I am currently using the cameras in bold:

Konica Minolta DiMAGE G400
Ricoh XR6 w 50mm 2.0
Canon Ixus 70
Canon PowerShot G9
Nikon D80 w 35mm (50mm equivalent) 1.8
Nikon D700 w 50mm 1.4
Leica M6 with 35mm summicron
Leica M6 with 50mm summicron
Olympus Trip 35
Canon Ixus 100
Gakkenflex
Ricoh GRD
Polaroid 636

The Leica is my main camera.

I like the challenge of manually set exposure, I like the slower tempo of film photography, both these parameters forces me to focus on the situation. The results of analog film photography is also so much more pleasing to the eye than photos created by digital means.
