Default What is your "other" camera?

We all on here (or most!) have a Micro 4/3 camera of some form be that Panasonic or Olympus but I was just wondering what other cameras people have if they do?

Particularly anyone that has a DSLR alongside their M4/3 kit, I was just wondering what you have and I guess why you feel that you need to keep both?

I have a camera in my Blackberry. I don't feel that I need both, but it comes with the phone so I don't have much choice.
Thanked by RDM and sprinke.

Canon 5DMKII. plus lenses. I think FF and m43 they go well together. m43 is my backup camera/street shooting camera, and the Canon for "birding", landscape, plus work for my design-illustration related stuff.

E-M5, makes it easier to have two of the same cameras and they are both light weight cameras and easy on my back.

I own the Olympus OMD-5 ( newer purchase)....the Panasonic GH2 ( I have had this for over a year---love the video and photos)....Panasonic LX3 ( was my favorite camera for years) and there is an Olympus 500 kit here too ( it gets used every so often). I forgot I also own the Panasonic DMC-TS3....waterproof camera!

I have a Nikon D90 with 3 primes, 2 zoom lenses and a macro lens. That is actually my main camera and my micro 4/3 is my 'traveling and don't have as much space' camera. I've also got a Canon S95 for 'traveling as light as possible' use.

I have a Leica M9 and a Ricoh GXR with A12 mount for Leica lenses. (I have been a Leica user for 40 years.) Until recently I had a Pentax K-5 DSLR but have now switched to the OM-D E-M5 which as my new toy is getting most use at the moment. I think I have just about convinced myself that it makes a valid replacement for for a DSLR. Still struggling a bit with the devious Olympus menu system.

well, my "other" camera is the m43 E-PM1.

My "main" camera is a Canon EOS 5D mkIII with 24LII/1.4, 50L/1.2, 85LII/1.2, 100L/2.8 IS, 17-40L/4 and 70-200L/2.8 IS II

to be honest, the pen mini is usually in use by my wife.

if I'm going to take a camera, I don't mind carrying the weight of my dslr for the quality gains.
