Was recently given a film camera so tentatively dipping my toes into this whole other side of things. Hoping to process the negatives myself and scan them into the computer afterwards.
As an alternative, if you already have a digital camera with macro lens, a light panel and a tripod you can quickly get very nice digital files off film. You’d also get through a number of negs faster than any scanner out there and its good enough for web publication. All my flickr pics have been done that way.
For important stuff and larger prints I have other options anyway.
