I have a Prinzflex 35mm. with the old Russian 18/54mm. lens, but I've had little time to use it over the last 40 something years.
Now I've retired I think I may be better off with a digital SLR as a replacement.
Not because it will be a better camera but the cost in film and prints while I'm learning how to take a picture would drive me mad.
Hopefully I can get the advice I need from how to do it books to camera purchase advice.

Best Regards

Mike.
Technology has moved on a pace in the last 40 years. With the modern digital cameras, anything that you made a mess of in the camera or a processing lab that has given your pictures a colour cast, has a better chance of being corrected in the computer software than the old fim medium.
Go for it Mike - it`ll open up a whole new world for you.
