I'm new to the digital photography world, my husband brad (james) introduced me to this site and i'm now wanting to get back into the photography world. In school i took photography classes with 35mm's in black and white, we cut and loaded our own film and developed all our own stuff, i really wish i would of kept up with it, because now i can't remember anything. I'm excited to be apart of this forum and can't wait to be able to get pictures of my own posted and looking foward to all the help and pointers i can get!!

This is a great introduction! It's wonderful to restart B&W photography both as a branch of digital photography and also pure honest film that you can hold in your hands and file in a sleeve! I hope you set up for film as you will get back this skill fast. Also think of pinhole photography which gives a unique perspective on life. The big thing is that you have arrived at a community where your pictures will be honestly critiqued, (as well as, from time to time, flippantly commented on as elsewhere, but no one is perfect)!

Jump right in and show us your stuff!

Thanks Asher! I'm beginning my research into camera's now, I for one never realized just how complicated it was going to be trying to pick out a camera. I really would like to stay with 35mm but I'm almost impatient with getting the photo's developed. I like the instant grafication that comes with digital and the ability to view the pictures that you don't like off the camera before you even put them on the computer. I know in when i was taking pictures in school I would go through 10-20 rolls of film before I got the one 'perfect' shot i was going for. Once i get my point and shoot fixed (I accidently left it where our 20 month old daughter got ahold of it.......oops!) I'll try using all the different settings and see what i can come up with. For a point and shoot, its a pretty decent little camera, its a Casio Exilim. Hoping to get an SLR soon.
