The best 35mm pictures/slides B& W and color that I ever made of my children were taken with a Nikon FE and Nikkor 105mm lens; the the best pictures printed from 6x6 mm negatives were taken with a Rolliflex TLR with a f3.5/75 lens and later with a Mamaya C330 TLR with a 180mm lens set.
Digital is convenient and cheap but just doesn't provide the psychic thrill of seeing a great 8 x 10" picture coming out of the developing tray or first viewing slides of the kids or travel photos when the box of slides arrived back from the Kodachrome processor.
