I still prefer film, I use a selection of different 35mm SLRs including 4 Z1sm an MZ5 and a dozen or so different manual SLRs, I've even been known to dig out my 110 SLRs every now and then.
Limiting yourself to a 36 shot cycle, rather than just blazing away a thousand frames because you can makes you pay more attention, and the wait to see the results can be quite a good test of nerves

It is a lovely lens, but I just don't get to use it enough, so it's best it goes to someone who'll get some use out of it. I don't collect gear to stick it in a cabinet, if I wanted to do that I'd be a leica owner.

Thank you all for the advice, I've finally got to play with one at Currys and it's exactly what I need from a camera, now all I have to do is sell a few bits and I'm there
