I have used film camera's as I have plenty of age to have been around, but never a film slr. So what made a good film slr body verse an entry level slr? I ask because as I think about it with digital, a better digital body gets me better ISO noise levels, often times a faster frames per second, and the ability to do a whole plethora of things that only became possible due to digital.
With film bodies the ISO was set based on the film you were using. Aperture was set by the lens. Shutter speed by the camera body. What more would/could a film slr camera body do for you to justify a higher price. Example: If the D3000 was a base level film camera, and a D4 was the high end film camera, what differences would there be to justify any kind of a mark-up?
Thanks for entertaining my mental wandering and curiosity.
