Camera gear, and thus reviews, is typically handled on Thom's sites specific to the type of gear (mirrorless, DSLR, film). Film SLR reviews are published on filmbodies.com, for example; links to those reviews can be found below (the camera name link). If I have a book for a film SLR, you'll also find a link to that in the list below. Finally, I have short, concise instructions available free for many film SLR bodies (again, links below).

You'd be buying used to get a film SLR these days. The best choice is probably the F100, but F4 and F6 models are also logical choices. Be careful buying further back in the SLR era: make sure that whatever you choose can still be repaired.
