Hi Don,

I'm not nostalgic for film. It is my preferred medium. My wife owns a 
digital camera that I purchased for her but it holds very little interest 
for me.

I really like to do my own printing in the darkroom. I don't want to get 
home from work at night to get back onto a PC. I enjoy using both my M and R 
cameras, Leica glass although expensive, is worth it to me. 

You are not alone.

Regards,

Greg
