Analog film photography and cameras

Different strokes for different folks, no? As with everything there's no right or wrong, just use whatever you like.

Yes. It is silly to argue which is better.
It depends on what you want / need to do of course.

There are some differences, yes -
SLRs are not as silent for example (but in how many situations do you really need this?)
SLRs are usually bigger / heavier - you might not want to carry it all day / every day
(but if you're serious about photos / do it for money you'll carry it anyway).

Personally, I can focus faster and compose better with SLRs, split-image and microprism work well for me,
and, as I often wear glasses, I have difficulties seeing the whole RF frame to begin with, so this sucks.

As for the speed argument modern SLRs win.

In the end it's a combination of personal preference, and using the right tool for the job I guess.
