After having done film from 1967 to 2007, I really don't miss any of that "thrilling" stuff. :)
And, unless I get an amazing deal on a Sinar P or Cambo 4x5 with a couple of nice lenses for landscape work, I don't see film in my future at this point.

How about:

Load film, set up and shoot... everything needed at least for the shots.
Add a hundred dollars and get the more expensive Legend series.
Hmmmm? Now??

Ya but still, the thrill of film is that I remember the smell of the chemicals and the joy of watching the image emerge in the pan under the red light in Dad's darkroom.... might not be such a far-fetched idea after all. And, if you do it all yourself, the price might be just right to add it as a sideline... http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_trksid=p2050601.m570.l2632.R2.TR12.TRC2.A0.H0.Xhassalb.TRS0&_nkw=hasselblad&ghostText=&_sacat=69323
Now that the chemicals are instant coffee (Caffenol) I rather enjoy the smell as well.

That's why I'll continue to shoot film. Nothing like seeing a 4x5 negative come out of the fixer and see the tonal range captured, and that's just the start.

Yes sir! And no raw file software to correct an image that was already exposed correctly in the first place.
