I've decided to get back into film since I put it down after college.
Step 1: Camera, looking at a Mamiya m645 with 5 lenses for $550. The seller seems like a good guy and has sample photos, bonus is that he's a photographer who regularly posts content. So we're calling step 1 as "checked"
Step 2: I have no clue where to begin lol. I was planning on setting up my cameras side by side initially to get a feel for what to expect exposure wise, put my digital at whatever my film ISO is, pick a middle aperture and shutter speed and pull the trigger. Thoughts?
I still have this book and think it should be sufficient to get me out the gate, I assume it's still the same general concept. After all, light is light no? Black and White Photography: A Basic Manual Paperback – May 30, 1983
Go to the nearest public library and they will have several books on basic photography.
Or buy one for cheap since most of them are really old and you can buy them used. Like this one http://www.amazon.com/Black-White-Photography-Basic-Manual/dp/0316373141
After reading something like that, read the manual for the camera which you can find here http://www.butkus.org/chinon/canon/canon_ae-1/canon_ae-1.htm
The manual may not make much sense unless you have basic knowledge of photography and that's why I recommend you read a basic photography guide before the manual.
