Am i right in saying any modern type film can be used given that the correct ASA is set on the camera.

Can you make any recommendations for B&W or Colour?

For color photography, I like slide film: greater dynamic range (brighter brights and darker darks). My favorite is Fujichrome: Velvia, Astia, and Provia all give nice results. Kodak's Plus X is a good black and white negative film. Personally I tend to like slower films (lower ASA) because of the smaller grain. They tend to enlarge more nicely. But, you'll need lenses that are fast enough to provide adequate light.

That is correct.
Slides are pretty unforgiving re exposure. If you want prints, use negative film.
Try the consumer film you find in Wallyworld or the drugstore. Kodak and Fuji are the 2 biggies. House brand film is usually Konica, Agfa, or Fuji and might be OK for snapshots.
Kodak Ultracolor 400 is pretty nice film. You can get real B&W or the c-41 B&W. The C-41 can be processed in any 1-hour minilab, and looks very good when printed correctly.
Kodak and Fuji both make professional film as well. I order mine on line form B&H Photo.
I am a Nikon user now, but my first real camera was an AE-1. I still have it, they were real tanks and go on and on!
