[QUOTE="hark, post: 650171, member: 13196"] One more suggestion...you might want to write down your settings for each photo so you can review what you did right and wrong. Either get a small paper tablet or use your phone to input the info. It will help especially when shooting unusual lighting conditions. If you aren't accustomed to eyeballing a scene and knowing when to +/- the exposure, you might want to start thinking about it. And one thing about shooting film is you will develop patience if you don't already have it. Some people shoot an overload of digital photos because it is so easy to delete what they don't want. But you will be paying for processing (and possibly prints). You also need patience when you drop off your film for processing. No more of the instant gratification that is so readily available with digital. ;) And quite often I could squeeze an extra image onto a roll of film. You won't be able to advance the film once you reach the end. Sometimes the last shot is only 1/2 of an image--it happens once in a while. [/QUOTE]
