This is my first post on this board and it looks like there is a lot of good info on here. Anyways I got into photography a little over a year ago with a nikon d80. I had always had point and shoots before that. For a little while I have wanted to try shooting film for some reason so I picked up an old nikon fg off ebay. I know nothing really about film and had no idea how to wind the camera/load the film. I figured it out after ruining 2 rolls but on the 3rd roll i had success. I think its a lot of fun because everything is mechanical on the film camera and you don't know what you get till you get your roll developed so you want to make sure you get the right shot. Another cool thing is my sb800 and a few of my lenses work with the camera (50mm 1.8d & sigma 24-70 2.8). I was impressed how good the first roll came out and can't wait to shoot some more with it.
Do you guys have any advice for me regarding things I may not know about working with film?
