I'm looking to buy a nice affordable film camera that can be manually focused etc. Any suggestions?

Sorry this post isn't very detailed as I don't really know what I need or want. I just know that I want a film camera that I can focus, adjust iso etc.

35mm or Medium Format?

if 35mm Canon AE-1 with a 50mm lens? Used to have one when I was younger, it rules, I miss it a lot. I want to get another but, I dont want to go back to shooting 35mm film, just medium and large format film for me now!

35mm indeed! I'll check out that camera today when I go to the local store.

Thanks Jeff.

Good deal?

Yeah that is the going rate for that setup. Im jealous....Maybe I'll just have to re invest in one! Better camera gear than the stock market!!!

Does anyone have any suggested reading on how to take proper care of the lense, cleaning, idiots guide to taking sweet photos etc... ?

Hi!
The Nikon D90 has a film option!

I purchased the AE1 a couple of days ago. Waiting for it to arrive now.

Jeff - I can't thank you enough for recommending this camera. I love it so far. I simply picked up a filter for the lens, lens cap, camera strap and was good to go. The camera came in excellent condition and takes super warm / nice photos. Exactly the look I was hoping for.

Are there any lenses / accessories you'd recommend I check out for this camera?
