I used to use a FM2 way back in days when I was into
photography... and digital cameras were not invented yet...that's
my first camera.
and yes, I like old SLRs that are completely almost mechanical a
lot. There have a weight that new cameras don't have and I feel it
gives a stability to a shot. I like the sound of the gears cranking
when I move the .. err u know tt part when you turn the film to the
next frame.
But true lens focusing is very different leh I feel. And the film
loading also. Howeever, cos they dont have the sound of the lens
'flicking' when you take a picture, it is really silent. A tutor of
mine used to take very nice gritty true life shots in biker bars in
Australia. And even in the low light, the range is very good.
