R1100 or around £110
R10 to the £ now?
I was working in Cape Town in 1997 (designing an online news publishing system for the Cape Argus & The Star) and IIRC it was around R6.

In response to the OP I think that a film SLR is a great way of learning how to use an SLR, however the instant response of digital will really help you learn what changing each parameter does as you can change the aperture and take the same picture again to find out what the effect is etc.
But for the price of a film body and a few rolls of film you can't really go wrong, but I think that if you're just learning then it might end up being a false economy thinking that film is cheaper after bought and developed rolls and rolls of film.
