Hi all;
Just stumbled into this by accident.
I am a dedicated Nikon owner and have two Nikon E series bodies. My lenses are a Tamron 25-75w/a zoom and an 80-210 telephoto by same maker. My flash is a Vivitar 5200 series.
Mostly I think I'm a dinosaur still usiing film BUT I still prefer the 'tonal' qualities I get from my system
I have the 2 bodies as I like shooting b&w as well and makes it easier.
The only glitch is I have to replace the foam light seal as they have worn off and causing light streaks. I plan to install the light seal kit myself as really miss not using my Nikons
For film I use Fuji 200 Superia xtra for colour and for b&w use Ilford FP4.
I took photography in college 30 years ago and as I've gotten into my early 50's it has become a true passion as I have a high stress tech support phone job.
I guess when I can't get film anymore I will go digital as have a digital 'point and shoot' I carry with me at all times.
When it boils down to it, NOTHING beats a good film photo
