We're playing different games of poker,here, but just so you know, occasionally I think it cool to smear some silver on a glass plate and see what develops.
As for photography, I agree on the toy stuff, but I also think it's important to recognize that the goal is to get the image you want. While cameras of 25 years ago did that capably, the cameras of today are even better, between autoexposure, autofocus, autowind, and a host of other features. But that doesn't mean it's a point and shoot--knowing how to use those features still counts. I just don't see the fun in having to tote out a light meter to ensure the right exposure, and then pre-focus to take an action shot, ensuring that the action in fact is on the right plane (or blow out the DOF).
