For digital, I have a ten year old Olympus C3030. It's only got a 3x (30-90 mm equivalent) lens, but it's a constant aperture f/2.8 so I don't lose speed as I zoom in. Plus, it has a full set of manual controls.

For film I have a Nikon N8008s with a Series E 50mm f/1.8 normal and a Series E 70-210 f/4 zoom. I mainly shoot Tri-X at the moment because I have access to lab facilities at school, but once the summer comes around, I'll be going back to C-41. I'm looking forward to trying out some of the new Ektar 100...

Here in "The Land Down Under" I'm using a Canon 350D EOS with L series IS Lens. For video I have a Canon HG20 which does a good job at capturing the sounds of our 7FDL-16 powered locos here!!
