I have noticed an increasing interest in film photography. If you are interested in the why, just google the topic and find many discussions on it.
I have also found out that Kodak has some new (to me ) emulsions that are getting a lot of raves, ex. Portra 400.

Wouldn't bother me one bit to go back to film other than the cost. Not a lot of income and all set up to shoot and print up to 13x39 right now if I want to! Going back to film I'd have to invest in a photo lab equipment and chemicals. Boils down to cost and probably learning curve for me but, I still have a Nikon F5 nd my old Yashica 635 cameras and love them both!

I shot on film in 35, medium and large format for years and I was happy to see it go. I think a lot of it's resurgence is related to nostalgia. I'd consider shooting a bit again but the cost.
Sorry Trump and Republic Party, you're WRONG! Our war dead are NOT "suckers" and "losers."

I found some old rolls of film under the bed the other day , been there 15 years probably . Wonder if they would worth getting developed. Anyone have any fist hand experience of good place to get film developed these days. I found several on line but would like some first hand opinions if they are out there. Thank you for your time...

I liked shooting film but, got a computer and printer when I went digital and never looked back. Still have a twin lens 120 camera and get it out now and then. digital and a decent printer are so much less expensive and I enjoy seeing what I got right them. Have a Cannon Pro 9000 MK II for about 7 or 8 yrs now and new one be here tomorrow, 13" of course. Like doing 13x19" and do a lot of 9x18 and 12x24's. Come to think still have a Nikon F 5 also but no film for it.
