Question: Whats a good film slr!?
im not really a beginner but im finding it hard to find anything about good slrs!.
i had a canon rebel and it was good but i want to find something a little more intense but not that expensive!.
and i dont want to go digital because i have a digital camera already and i want to put the dark room i have back to use!.
i dont have my rebel anymore but if its best for beginner/intermediate photographer then i would be more then willing to buy another one!.
a list or website would be great!

thanks for the help!Www@QuestionHome@Com

if you already had a rebel then canon isnt what you want!.
Nikon is definently the best!. Www@QuestionHome@Com

I assume you're talking about a black and white darkroom!. If you want to shoot color film and develop and print it yourself, you're insane!. When it comes to film, you could go with the elan, which is good, but unnecessarily so!. When you say digital, are you talking about Dslr!? because darkrooms become impractical for anything other than black and white prints and alternative processes like lith making!. I still use my rebel g for school if I'm going to be hanging over a cliff or near a large body of water!. Other than that, it's only good for slides and other alternative process stuff like polaroid transfers and gum dichromate!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

if you want to have fun with one, get yourself a manual camera!. I personally like the 2 1/4x 2 1/4 Yashicamat 124G's bigger picture, definitely manual, a fun camera to play with!. Www@QuestionHome@Com

my favorite is the Pentax K1000 (Asahi) i grew up using that camera, it was my first camera and works amazing and has good quality, good options and features!. i highly reccomend this camera!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

I still use my canon rebel k2!. Its an oldie but a goodie! Www@QuestionHome@Com
