I have a Olympus OM10 that my dad purchased in the 1970s. He is one bad ass photographer and taught me the art of photography on that camera, even today I'd rather use a film camera than a digital one.
Yeah I agree I too was taught in film base...B&W to be exact and digital imaging is hard to get the same warmth from.

I would get a film based camera but for actual film work its just too expensive to do and editing is a real bitch with real film

True... but nothing compares to doing the dirty work yourself. When I lived in India we rarely took our films to the studio to get them developed because both my brother and I were pretty good and doing all the work ourself.

Yeah I used to be able to develop film from a regular 35mm still cam but not a movie cam

You going digi or analog based? 35mm??

If you are going analog then start with B&W photos...once you can see a good B&W picture then color is simplistic from there.

Digital is a bit harder especially when it comes to lighting. It picks up light easily and makes for some harsh situations even when they seem like great shots when you take them

Gets kinda frustrating but then thats where level adjustment comes in with photochop.
