[QUOTE="Marcel, post: 331588, member: 3903"] There is no way to better understand photography than using film, developing it and printing it. It gets you to understand exposure, film latitude. When I first started to shoot weddings with a local pro, he just handed me a 12 exposure 120 B&W film and told me that he'd let me shoot color as soon as all my 12 shots would be perfectly exposed with and without manual flash. It got me in line and I learned about incident metering and reflective metering. So I guess the teacher we are talking about in this thread probably has some pedagogic reasons to use film exclusively for the first session. So, back to the question, any Nikon SLR would fit the bill since Nikon F mount lenses can still be used on today's DSLRs. [/QUOTE]
