I want to buy a digital SLR someday, but cannot afford it right now. I do have a 35mm SLR, but I can't really afford to buy and develop film anymore, either. I can't believe how expensive and hard-to-find it has become locally. I have a cheapie 10mp Canon Powershot, and that's all I can really work with right now. What I hate about it is that there isn't even a viewfinder, so I HAVE to use the preview screen. Bizarre. My husband bought it for me as a surprise about a year ago to replace my previous digital, so I didn't have any say in what I was getting. I feel really frustrated, because I won't be able to get anything better until tax refund time. There isn't a lot I can do in manual mode with this thing. Please tell me that I can improve my photography skills with this in the mean time?! If not, is there a place online that I can purchase decent quality film inexpensively in bulk? I don't trust eBay, since someone could have kept the film out in their garage or car for 10 months and ruined it, or it could be expired. HELP!
