Do you use both Analog and Digital SLR cameras? |
I still need to know a preference type of digital SLR for those who like analog as well and use both. Please only answers from those who like both types of equipment and are serious about their craft. i've had an old pentax k1000 all manual camera for years and love it. works great, very durable, and very accurate meter readings. i've used several different digital slr's. my biggest problem so far is very few have a 'live' lcd screen. so unlike the digital point and shoot cameras where you can compose on the lcd screen, in the digital slr it is strictly for previewing. a very useful tool though, since the old way of previewing involved lots of polaroids or keeping your fingers crossed when it finished developing. olympus makes a 'live' lcd digital slr and i think leica does too. if the 'live' lcd doesn't bother you i'd say get a canon xt, 20D, 30D, 5D, etc. since they have TONS of lenses and they are compatible with many 3rd part lenses as well. Used a Minolta SRT 202 for years. Truly a manual camera. I still have it. I really liked it. It had a meter so you didn't mess up much. hated waiting for the film to come back. I use analog and scan my negatives in. Its a personal preference. There is something deeply satisfying about working with the actual film. Also, not being able to see the image you took immediately can improve the creative process. I use only digital now. ( Nikon D200 cameras) I shoot weddings 100% digital. I still like film but only shoot maybe 4 rolls a year at most. for film i have (and use) a pentax k1000, minolta srt-201, minolta 7xi, and an old rolleicord dlr (circa 1935 medium format) |
