    Possibly more so given there's all that medium format stuff to explore. My journey into 135 film started in full digital and regressed backwards into homeloaded B&W but I could not engage with home developing and I gradually resented the cost of getting negs scanned to disk.
    But the ergonomics.... much like hand-winding valjoux chrono..... dribble, dribble, dribble. My particular prediliction was the Olympus OM1-4 series.
    Beware the Canon cough!

    DSLR to mirrorless: that seems to be the thing to do just now/down my way. I'm too locked into the value of Canon L lenses to think about a major kit shift and, from wht I read on t'internet, Canon's EF mount mirrorless offerings are not exactly market leaders.

    The cost of the full scan is what nudged me out of fillum. For while I worked in a Norfolk market town which was home to a Kodak developer lab and I used to enjoy getting my film "dev & neg only" and and a free constructive feedback.
    At the time I was homeloading b&w which I was buying on the roll and buying colour fillum from Poundland at £1/roll.

    Gorgeous body and lens combo you got there.
