Film Prices Up by 10.39% Since July 2022

Using a manual camera to reduce the average rate you go through rolls seems to be a variation of shooting less film. Instead of exposing, for example, one frame a day, you expose one frame every two days thereby using less film.

There’s an initial cost (you’ll need chemicals, a film tank, and a few more tools) and ongoing expenses (you’ll need chemicals). Plus, the cost of storing the additional equipment and disposing of those chemicals.

I scan my negatives at home but I admit a quality scanner is expensive and scanning takes a lot of time.

Pros and cons.
