My two cents is that, as long as you've taken the time to actually learn photography and not just rely on automated stuff, you should do fine with film. The biggest difference will be the inability to chimp, but you can wean yourself off that with digital. Kill some cheap film to test when you do get it. Buy equipment that you know is good (hence this thread), learn it, and trust it. I grew up with film p&s's. I currently use a d40, I chose it for price and instant feedback for learning. I plan to switch over to film eventually. I've studied user guides for some of these cameras, like the n80, and it's easy to see what they're capable of. Photography is photography, whether it's film or digital, just the process will be different, that and the variation in film. And yeah, high quality film bodies are cheap right now. An f4 on keh in excellent condition runs about 300. That's peanuts compared to the d40.
