Hi folks,

Some days ago, my father gave me his old reflex camera, Konika FC-1. But it's hard for me to use it, because since now I have been taking my pictures with a digital compact camera, so i am used to that.

What I want to know is if any of you has got any trick, which are not for a digital camera???

THanks anyway...

I don't know the Konika, but I have photographed 30 years with an analog Nikon SLR(Nikkormat). In analog you have to choose on forehand the type of film (sensitivity). So shooting analog pictures is much more critical from an exposure point of view. And of course postprocessing of analog is much more limited than with digital. There are some trick to influence the tonal width of the film by choosing the developer fluid and timing if you develop the films yourself.

Low sensitivity analog films can have an extreme resolutions in lines/mm (the analog equivalent of Mpxs).

Aitor, Pansa is right about the film.
But what you can do is develop the film, scan the negatives in a film-scanner and then work on the computer with it.
