If you get a Canon slr, make sure not to use EF-S lenses with it (e. g. 18-55 mm kit lenses or so), because they will break your camera. (On crop bodies, the mirror is smaller.) Other, normal, Canon lenses, will work, of course.The Nikon F90 can be had for $50. I would look for some kind of Canon equivalent, if you have a Canon DSLR.
It's also useful to observe that every single 35mm film body is "full frame," rather than being cropped like most digital cameras are.
what about on the canon side? i have two canon digital cameras so as far as lenses go i already have a few that could save some cash
But since you can get film cameras so cheap, you can go 'all the way'. I did. I recently picked up a great condition, used EOS 1V for about US$300. Not bad for the most advanced film camera Canon ever produced.
A used Nikon F6 costs over $1000.

i'm looking into getting a film body. been wanting to get a film slr and learn how to develop film myself and i was just curious as to any suggestions that people had on film slr bodies for general photography.
