Old habits... large clear optical viewfinders, stability with the camera pressed to your face... important with slow film, low ISOs.

New habits... cameras integrated with cellphones, bright screens, high ISOs allowing high shutter speeds, no need to brace the camera.

I've got the best of both worlds. An old Pentax 645 film camera, and a little XZ-1 where I can use the screen as a B/W previewer, and to see a histogram.
