I also suggest one of the SRT line of cameras. I have a 303 and it's just amazing. Made of metal, very big and bright prism, fully manual controls, no auto anything, works without batteries (except for the light meter, but you can find compatible batteries if you really need the meter) and I think for learning to shoot film it is one of the preferred choices. The later models in SR mount are generally more plasticky with a lot of electronics that might work or it might not (and will require weird batteries either way) and some models (lower end) won't even give you full manual control (as in I'm so clever you don't have to do anything, just point and shoot). The AF Minoltas (alpha mount) are even worse in that regard, especially the lower models (auto everything, little manual control). Also for some reason the newer models have inferior viewfinders. |
