While I do agree that it is noce to be in the lab under the lights (it was one of my favorite things to do in school) unless you are printing your own what is the point of buying a special body to just shot film.

..... my all time favorite Nikon body is the F3.
It feels like so much more of an effort and is more rewarding in the end. Digital is so automated, there's no craft left in it.
I disagree. With most good SLRs you can set the camrea to manual for best results just like on a film camera. Focus, ISO, shutter speed, aperture, everything... and you get the instant gratification of being able to see how your shot turned out in the viewer without needing to process the picture to see if your settings are right or wrong.
The "art" in using a dSLR manually is no better or worse than a film camera, IMHO. I use my dad's Nikon F2A now and then and am very comfortable using it, same as my Nikon D200. My preference just leans towards digital.
Now if you like processing film and what not, well that compares to spending hours in Photoshop (minus the fumes and eventual need for an iron lung... lol). There is a lot more the same than differenent in SLRs and dSLRs.
