Hey photo friends, Erik here. I recently stumbled upon Photography Monthly’s article on “The 50 Greatest Cameras of All Time”. I was a little surprised that my beloved Olympus E-P3 didn’t make their list, but I put together this little collection of some of my other favorites with some bits of information about them for your perusal.
And whoa are there some doozies in there. The list is fascinating, lots of history and indications of the future. Click thru the gallery tabs above to see the rest of the cameras and then let us know what your favorites are – whether they’re on the list or not. Commentary? Why do you love em? Inquiring minds want to know…
Of course the number one should be “The one that’s with you”, but certainly, what camera your using can influence the shot and make it better or worse. I think you put together a nice little list Eric! I have to say I like your choice!

camera is important up to certain point but photographer takes the great picture, not his camera.
The best cameras are the ones that are actually made by hand…pinhole cameras.
Nice to see the Contax RTS on there, I love my Contax/Zeiss gear!
remember the T3 !? awesome
I wonder why Nikon F3 or FE2 is not in list.
