I like to use reversal film for teaching. I give the students cameras, they shoot, and then we develop together in the dark room. As soon as it's dry, we project. They generally prefer color to black and white, though it takes longer to develop... And the color reversal stock is really

I like to shoot film even though I really can't afford it. I've no money for prints, blow-ups or any cost beyond processing. Rolls of super 8 stack up in my fridge until I have the funds to process it, which usually happens once or twice a year. But I still shoot film when I can, and it is always
