I still have a Canon EF and miss some features. I liked being able to select different lenses.
A. I did not like all of the chemicals needed to develop and print color or to process color. I think the digital cameras have substantially reduced industrial chemical waste in the photography business.
B. I was lucky to use about 1/2 of my shots.
C. I sometimes missed shots trying to get everything ready.
D. I did not like having to wait to have them processed or printed.
E. I really miss the two Vivitar 90mm macro lenses. One is continuous down to 1:1 image size. The other is a Series I 90mm macro lens and is probably the sharpest lens I own.
I have several Canon point and Shoot cameras plus a Panasonic.
1. Canon A620 4x optical zoom 7.1mp
2. A used Canon S10is. Cheap less than $100 10mp
3. A used Canon SX20IS. Cheap less than $110 IFRC 12mp
4. Bought new Panasonic Lumix FZ47 Fixed lcd display 12mp
The reason I bought the used Canons is I don't like the dedicated lithium batteries. These Canons use AA batteries available everywhere.
The Panasonic uses a Lithium battery and you are SOL if you don't buy extra batteries and aftermarket ones are Caveat emptor. I also sometimes misplace the charger.
The Canons also have an articulated LCD screen which I find very useful.
All of these suffer from one thing. The small sensor reduces the useful
shutter speed so shooting indoors can be a pita if you don't want to use flash photography. I think a full size sensor allows about 4x increase in F stop speed, but I am not sure.
I hope one day to buy a Canon Rebel so I can use my Canon and Vivitar lenses. They won't autofocus or stop down, but I think they might be worth the trouble to use manually.
