Wow, talk about a time machine! I started photography way back in high school on a Yashika twin lens reflex shooting 120. The b&w looked soooo smoothe in that format! Then I dreamed of an SLR. It is more work and more expense if you go that route. It does have it's use, but with todays film I'd go with the 35-70 and shoot slides!
