People likely spent less time with their cameras in hand, with 36 shots per roll you have to be deliberate about the shots. I remember going on 2 or 3 week vacations as a kid and we'd sometimes have exposures left over on the single roll we brought. Maybe that's because this was with an OM seriesI wonder if all those criticising ergonomics of Leicaflex SL, Nikon F2, Minolta SRT 101, Canon F1 ever really (often!) used these cameras. Ergonomics were different, yet, quite strangely, nobody complained back then. And, between these competing brands, the important controls were almost identically placed. So, whether you used a Minolta or a Nikon, you found yourself at home...
The exception (not dramatic) being the Olympus OM series.
