To be true I almost have no big experience with photos, except a Nokia N73 that was my point-and-shot camera for 2 years and captured stunning photos. After that (it broke 7 months ago and I have no cell-phone from that) I stopped taking pictures, I used to take photos of everything and never had a real camera. Except for an old Canon Elph with film rolls, 5 years ago.
Now I'm planning to take a big leap to "real" photos, but from the ground. I want to revive my old Canon, I only took like 100 or 200 pics before stop using it.
The point is that I heard that film cameras are way better than digitals (not exactly in quality, practicality or technology, rather before using DSLRs) just because the way you can control light or film and many things. Recently I saw that Nikon still has a roll film reflex, the FM10 and its pretty cool because its retro style and relatively low price (for what it is, or what it was).
I still don't know much about lenses and that stuff, I know some definitions as ISO, aperture and focal lenght, and I'm pretty sure I'll can handle them.
Many people says that they learned a lot using film cameras before DSLRs or when they were already using digitals.
But I'm not if I get the FM10 and then a DSLR, I'm not gonna use digitals all my life, there's another great cameras such as Lomo or Holga (probably my next birthday gift), or the forever funny Polaroid.
Should I get a normal point-and-shot camera before a SLR? Should I revive my Canon Elph? Should I go straight to a DSRL? (in that case I'll post a thread with my options)
