Hey guys, i need some help here. My SLR died on me just a few days ago. *sigh* just when i needed it most. It was a Praktica M105, and its really old. But i got it second hand like last year!The mirror is just jammed up and there's some problems with the spooling i think,cause the negative frames are sort of linked together and not spaced out with the typical line in between them.
But anyways, i was then thinking of either repairing it or getting a new camera. However, i kinda like the manual SLRs, whereby the settings are like at your finger tips rather than the auto-focus,electronic kind, whereby you'll actually have to play around with the dials on top. So what would be a good manual slr to get? Am i the only dinosaur who's actually using a manual slr like that! :O Cause i realize that most of my friends have those digital ones!
Also, roughly how much would i have to pay for it? I don't mind getting anything 2nd hand,but i am on a rather tight budget. Yeap, so any tips? Thanks!
