Hello all,
This is my first post so please be gentle.
My wife is looking for a new hobbie and I suggested she take up photography, she is really up for the idea and it is her birthday in a couple of weeks, so I have decided to buy her a film camera.
We already have a digital camera, but I think it would be nice if she could set up a dark room and develop her own pictures.
So I have a few questions and need a bit of advice.
First off, Camera - I have been looking at 35mm SLR's.
Would this be a good start ? Can anybody reccomend a make/model that would be good for a beginer. I am looking at spending about £100.
Dark Room - How much will it cost to set up ? I have looked at a few web sites which give details of how to do it, but they do not give any details of cost.
Anything else I may need to know.
Thanks in advance for any advice.
