Do you guys pay for development/scanning or are you doing some/all steps at home? I’m using analog photography as counterpart to my very display-centered work, so digitizing would be the last step after making a real darkroom print. Everything happens at home by myself. Downsides are the lack of images showing up here and maybe that I’m mostly limited to B/W.

    I live next to one of the largest (maybe the largest?) film labs in N America, and am friends with a few of the staff. I use them to develop & scan.

    I learned how to develop in school, but since life has gotten busier, I like being able to focus on shooting. Maybe later in life I can do more of the develop & scanning again.

      Right now, I simply don’t. Right now, I’m not able to make time to print, let alone scanning. On the long run, I’d prefer a repro-stand+digital camera over a flatbet because of the greater flexibility in format. But I own neither and don’t want to buy a digital just for that. Sorry internet strangers, you’ll have to wait a decade or two to judge my images!

    I go to a shop for all my needs. I really want to build up a darkroom at my house, but that will have to wait a while unfortunately.

    Local shop all the way but I’d like to develop my films at home. Right now i’m just trying to hold myself back a little bit as I seem to start a new hobby every 6 months or so ^^" i did some courses of film photography at school where we did everything from loading film to cartridges to developing and darkroom. Fun times!
