I shoot digital, and only black and white film, these days.

(I need to build a darkroom so I can print again)

But the thing that really hooked me deep into photography was 6x6 transparencies from a Rolleicord. Velvia, incident light meter, sunny day, job done.

Downvotes on my earlier comment suggest that people haven't had this experience: no matter how great, practical and useful digital is, there is something mesmerising and emotional about a great transparency.

These days I get my visceral buzz from assembling my own simple lenses.

Try 8x10 transparencies. You will be hooked.

One day... building a 4x5 is next.
