I had one for a while. Shot a few weddings with it. When I moved to Europe
I donated it to a local junior college with some other stuff. They were happy.

Then, in 2004, Nikon's D70 came along and changed everything. It was a fantastic camera. Digital photography is a blast.

B+w, and Infrared. I still have my FM2 back in the states. Couldn't bring it back because of weight. Just loved the camera with the motordrive on it. I'm shooting digital now. But sometimes I miss the discipline that film forced you to have.
And for more discipline there is my Zone VI view camera.

But the negative was long gone by the time we wanted to transfer the photo to computer, so we scanned the only print we had. It wasn't in great shape visually but we were able to clean it up digitally. A negative scanner sure would have been nice though.
