hey all
having been given the gift of a camera for graduation (grad school), i could use some advice in picking one out. As of yet, i don't know a budget, and i know that really matters here. i'll try to post my budget as soon as it get a clue from the family. Also, after talking with resident expert StuartR and a few friends, I'm thinking along the lines of the following:
Canon Elan7NE (used) or a Nikon N80 (or similar) with a 50mm 1.4 lens, and a telephoto for zooming.
I want the ability to go fully manual (both zoom and focus), but want to be able to go fully auto too.
I am not looking for a digital camera, i'm interested in a celluloid fed (i.e. film) camera only.
Thanks so much for any help and suggestions.
