From: My own level of hell
Default Camera people (35mm SLR question)

I have been researching digital SLRs lately and have come to the conclusion that instant gratification doesn't justify the price tag.

I need speed and control over my camera and I have a little digi that does ok (slow as hell but it works).

I used to do a bit of amateur photography and it was all with 35mm SLR cameras, although it has been a while since I ggot serious.

So I am looking for a true SLR film camera that allows me multi frame shooting (seems to be standard), both auto and manual controls, adjustable aperature, and a range of lenses that won't kill me when I go to expand my collection.

One camera I have found that is looking good to me is the Nikon N80 which I can pick up with 2 lenses (28-90 and 70-300) for $529 (US) which doesn't seem a bad price considering it will shoot a full roll of 24 shots in les than 2 minutes if I choose to get happy on the trigger.

Anyone have any other ideas or suggestions keeping these perameters in mind?
