>>4165337I'd be open to change my mind if you provided some compelling argument. Anon wants to upgrade from a focus-free toy camera, the bare minimum your upgrade should offer is a scale in either feet or meters. That Konica has pictograms, "head shot", "full body", etc, with a 35/2.8 lens. Besides my options are probably cheaper than some meme point and shoot, they're hipster taxed to death nowadays.
>>4165340If you have it for free you might as well try it, I was only arguing against buying one. Get a 36 roll of Foma 400 or similar cheap stock, it's a test shot after all.
But if you get the chance to acquire a SLR do it by all means. Even if it's something like a measly Minolta SRT-101 or Zenit 12XP. The creative control they afford you is superior. You can do pretty much every technique you can read about on a photography book with those, save for sophisticated stuff like second curtain flash.
