What are the advantages of buying a manual film camera over a digital one?
I found some great, cheap cameras on ebay, but they aren't digital, and my mother won't let me buy one. She says that there is no reason to use a film camera instead of a digital camera anymore. Personally, I think that all of those extra options complicate the camera too much. Does anyone know any advantages of buying a film camera that I can use to reason with my mom?
1. It's much less expensive to "flesh out" your whole system. Going this route, I have been able to buy 6 camera bodies and lenses from 20mm through 300mm for the cost of a mid-range DSLR.
2. The cost of film and processing will tend to make you more contemplative. You will think about every exposure and composition. This makes you a much better photographer than just blindly shooting away as many digital photographers do.
3. Contrary to the "instant feedback" argument that many people espouse, negative film is much, much easier to learn on than digital. You can be way off on exposure and still get a perfectly useable image.
4. Film is better than ever. The latest pro films from Kodak and Fuji are amazing in terms of grain.
5. Buy pro quality film equipment, and it will never die with typical amateur use. Plus, film equipment doesn't become obsolete in a few years like digital equipment.
6. Eventually, move up to medium or even large format, and you'll be amazed at quality that tops any digital camera on the market.
