It’s really strange to see instructions for using a film camera, but with more and more people being brought up on digital and turning to film. Thank you for the idea that you share.

I also think that when the high cost of digital hardware and its rapid depreciation is taken into account, film really isn’t expensive. Thank you for the information that you post.

Nikon F55 35mm camera and on reading the instruction manual I notice that it suggests a DX coded film which will set the speed automatically. Being a complete beginner, and after searching many sites. Thank you for the idea.

I have both a DSLR camera and a film camera. Though I bring both cameras on my travels, I still prefer to use my film camera over the dlsr even though I’m not very familiar with its different functions. Thanks for your tips!

Sorry Susan, I missed this!

All modern film is DX coded so you have no need to worry. There’s a bar code on the canister that automatically tells the camera’s electronics what the film speed is. Like a supermarket beep, but without the beep.

Pop it in and as long as your battery isn’t flat, you’re ready to go.
