Almost everything digital becomes quickly more for less as time goes by. In contrast, a perfectly good 20–year old classic film camera isn't going to become obsolete from one year to another. In fact, they get better, because lenses and films are still being improved.
It is just now, after nine years of digital photography, that the camera manufacturers are bringing out affordable digital reflex cameras. There is one model – completely digital, its dedicated image capture chip matches its lens – that sells for under $1500.
Its identical–looking 35mm film reflex cousin retails for about $250. A film scanner with an image resolution of 2700 dpi costs about $300.
Add the two together, considering that you don't already have a 35mm reflex, and you have $950 left over – perhaps for buying films, and maybe a huge hard disk and a CD–ROM recorder. By combining the resolution of classic film and the ability of making first–class scans from the film, you will be far ahead of the absolute top digital reflex.
