I was wondering how many photographers on here still shoot on film ? I started out taking photos on a hand-me-down Canon A40, and have taken some pretty nice shots with it. However I decided I wanted to learn the more technical aspects of the craft, and not being able to afford a Digital SLR, I turned to ebay for some second hend film SLRs. I picked up a Minolta XG-1, a Pentax MG, and several lenses for each. Paid a maximum of $30 per piece . My hope is that taking a step backwards in terms of technology will make me pay more attention to the finer points of photography, in terms of keeping an eye on exposure, focus, aperture etc.

Anyone else feel the same way ? Or am I living in the stone age ? :P
