Plus the price for my favorite film stock (E100, TMAX400, P3200, Tri-x 400) has gone up quite a bit recently. Additionally, if you do the math, it quickly adds up (approximately 50 rolls a year, a roll of film costs $7 these days, developing $10 per roll, and scanning $15 per roll, plus postage). Could I use a pro lab to do all the work for me? Absolutely however, I prefer to do a lot of it myself so I can better control the process end-to-end and the results. Why a new digital camera? Well, with two young kids I literally have zero time for film at the moment - developing, scanning and spotting that is. (Inserting my usual disclaimer here - what follows is my opinion and your opinion may differ, which is absolutely fine) I purchased the black chrome version from the fine folks at Green Mountain Camera up in Vermont. A few days ago (weeks by the time I publish this review) I pulled the plug and made the decision to sell the majority of my film cameras (two M2s + my soul) and buy the newly released Leica M10-R.
