New camera...Have Q's

[Soulz3urn3lack]

Just got myself a Minolta XE-7 for a good deal on ebay. Just now venturing into SLR's and new to 35mm (Well for the most part).

Is there a good site to buy lenses for this? Other than Ebay, or is that basically it?

Do any of you have EXP with this camera? Also do any of you have samples of photography from this exact camera?

ALSO, what is the best fim to use in this camera? So I can try and stock up.

Thanks =)

If you want to shoot B+W Ilford HP5 is cheap and good and can be pushed to iso1600 no problem, this is a shot pushed to iso1600

....Also do any of you have samples of photography from this exact camera?.....

The skill and knowledge of the photographer has far more bearing on an image than the equipment.

GSgary: That looks really nice! I'll have to check out the film. Thanks! =)

KmH: I know, I would just like to see what people have done with this equipment. It's kind of interesting.

It seems like an interesting site. Have you shopped there yet? Is it pretty reliable?
