My older brother never really got used to digital (he's a hobby shooter) and stuck with film and the development process right down to printing. I never really followed and considered it to be too expensive and too time consuming. Until I bought my self a Kiev-4 RF camera and rounded up some chemicals en equipment. Now I'm completely hooked and do most of my portraiture with a Rolleicord and a Bronica SQ-Ai (both 6x6). I've never been happier, no kidding That sounds familiar!

No nested menus, no auto-focus selector switch to inadvertently flip and compact enough for it to slip into my camera bags alongside my digital gear quite happily. I have to thank Nikon for maintaining backward lens compatibility. :) The FM2n is a lovely camera.

It took me YEARS to get over yearning for the days when cameras were not totally reliant on batteries! Your shot of the FM2 just took me all the way back there. Many of my 20-odd (very odd sometimes) years as a press photographer were spent with two of those beasts clanking around my neck. Loved 'em. They never let me down. thanks for the memory.
