Film Camera experts out there?? I need one for photography cl?

Nikon still makes the FM10 if you need a new one. Or you can get an auto-focus camera and use it manually. Practically any of the Nikon or Canon bodies beyond the first entry level (in Nikon, that would be the N70, I believe) will have manual settings as well as program or auto. So you might consider Nikon N80, N90, or step up a bit and get an F100. The 50mm f:1.8 lens is easy to find used as well, but you can get a new one for around $100, the best bang for the buck in all photography. I'll let the Canon people make suggestions on their models, EOS would be a good bet there.
