However, once the film is developed, it is a major dust magnet! On the other hand, I can go for years without cleaning sensors because I am careful when changing/removing lenses.

it all depends on how you store your negatives. leaving them on the coffee table is not a good idea.

nothing like reading the manual, before using device!

Anyone know which one costs the manufacturer more to make? Which one, generally, grants the greater amount of f-stops-equating stability?
neither, use of a tripod beats everything.

whenever the choice comes to body/lens, go with the lens. you can always use the body in its manual setting to obtain what you want.

I have lots of Nikon equipment that is 35mm including a F5! Is there any use with this or is Digital the only way?
my first thought was "you've gotta be kidding"! however, let us be a bit more rational. the f5 body is an excellent, durable platform for your lenses. it is film, which is superior to digital imaging, as regard the paper print results. also, more and more manufactures are offering different films to the consumer market. so, i would keep your camera and lenses and use what seems to be an excellent outfit.
good luck!

My fears are the same as yours except I haven't taken the tumble. The weight loss is the attraction to me. However I hesitate like a ping-pong ball. I am curious as to what others have to say.....
i use film only, but here's my take. the camera body is merely a platform on which to mount the lens(es). the heavier the platform, the more stable the lens/body combination. this is one reason i liked the contax ax so much. heavy, thick body and perfect for the zeiss 200 and 300mm lenses, hand held.
currently using a contax 645 w/35mm and 120mm lenses as "walk around" setup.

Wtf are you trying to say here? Lol
very simple - when faced with a subject, which do you want to empathise, do you want, if shooting in colour, to under expose for more saturated colours, or a faster shutter speed to stop any action/movement.
it is all a matter of pre visualising the final outcome. that's where the craft comes in. deciding on which aperture and shutter speed will determine the accuracy of the image.

not a long as there are cameras and lenses and oh yes, craft.

I need to post an Instamatic picture here {Gallery where it belongs, not this section, which is supposed to be for discussion}. Physical limitations, of both lens and film, mean that an Instamatic picture can never be what most people here would rate as "excellent" - not nearly sharp enough.
only if the image is supposed to be "sharp", which, i admit, seems to be an obsession on this site. not all images are supposed to be "sharp".

SS, thanks for the insight. You have opened up a new line of reasoning and shooting for me. Previously, I always felt a head-shot perimeters should stay within the frame. John
you all, including Mr. Hurley, might want to consult the fashion work of Sarah Moon on this subject.
