There is a certain allure that you can only find with film cameras.

The suspense of not knowing for some time after the pictures are snapped if you captured the moment or not. It's unpredictable, romantic, an experience. Then you get the roll back. Sometimes it's disappointing. And sometimes you flip through each picture with wonder -- it's even better than you remembered.
