Film Photography

Developing

Film Photography is expensive per photo. Colour film is a couple pounds more expensive per roll, but it’s a couple pounds cheaper to process, so the differences even out. Assuming you get someone to do your processing (and high res scanning of course) its about £0.75 per shot by my maths (using analogue wonderland for film and jacks lab for processing).

DIY developing would bring this cost right down, but then you’ve still got to pay to get it scanned. This costs ~£9/roll, so you only save £5 here.

Printing

Get it with the film. Save cash by not printing them all…. Options:

• With development - ~21p per shot
• DS Colour Lab - ~20p per print
• Photobox - ~15p per print
  • Maybe a little less premium, but who cares.
  • Premium is ~21p per print.
  • Has a 60 print price break, which is more likely to be hit.

Something to try with cheap film, link to turtorial.
