Olympus Pen F is certainly a good choice but look also at the Konica Auto-Reflex Full & Half Frame Film SLR . You can shoot full frame or half frame with only one camera. And the Hexanon lenses are awesome.

In my obscure (in film terms) corner of the world consumer film is getting pretty close to the price professional film online, so I think it would make sense to shoot the latter but still purchase the consumer one to send a signal that there is still interest in film. Newton made his theory of universal gravitation in very dire circumstances, hopefully some inventive lover of the medium will get some advancement, in development and scanning devices. Where I live the labs are more experienced in digital, and well, I do the scanning with my digital cameras, which somehow turns film into a middle man between the digital camera and the photographed place.
Me, I have a freezer full of film in ziplock bags and always have a few cameras loaded up to augment my digital photography. Every 2 months or so I send 6-8 rolls to thedarkroom.com for developing and enhanced scans ($15). Costs about $100-120, depending on how many rolls and if I shot slide film ($3 extra). 2ff7e9595c
