I had 2 Olympus OM-2s, with many lenses and flashes and cords and filters...etc. Was getting into developing my own B&W and Ektachrome slides. Digital came out, and I finally bought a small Olympus-2000, thinking it might be fun to 'play' with. I...umm.. never pushed the button on a film camera again. My mind went to my trip to Alaska in 1975, when I shot maybe 25 rolls of slide film... and paid for processing. Yes, it took a few years before digital came near what one could do with film, but I was not doing professional work, and I have SO many memories that I could not have afforded staying with film.
