My wife has her old Canon with a few nice lenses. It probably wouldn't be super hard to convert it to digital, I've seen projects like that on Hackaday.
Analog photography is also on a bit of a resurgence. As long as it takes 35mm film there shouldn't be any issues getting film or having it developed somewhere (apart from the high prices).
It's become a bit of a hobby for me lately. Analog photography requires more commitment when taking pictures and the images also have this lovely analog aesthetic. In a weird way it's also fun to have to wait until you see your images. Once you're finally through a roll and have it developed, you're taken back to all the memories you've photographed in the past weeks/months.
Yeah but neither of us long for the days of film. We like the zero cost per shot so you can take 20 shots hoping a few turn out.
