Where do you get film developed these days? Do you process your own? B/W or color?I still enjoy analog/film photography.
As you probably already know, B/W processing and enlarging is pretty easy.I've thought about doing my own b/w film, haven't acted yet.
You and my Dad both, Dad was a big time Nikon guy, has two custom F-2's and a metric ton of lenses and all the accessories! Sad really, most of that was top shelf stuff, and Dad won a number of awards with his photos! He still enjoys "Film" but it's all digital now!Thanks for that! I pretty much just got completely out of photography when the industry went away from film and went digital.
I have to face who I am... I'm a Luddite...
I've got literally thou$and$ of dollars of Nikon (2) and Pentax (3) cameras, Nikon and Vivitar lenses, flashes, motor drives, etc. which will likely never see the light of day again...

I was doing it in high school 40+ years ago as the chief Annual Staff photographer.
Color processing and printing was way beyond my pay grade, though...
My very first camera was a Pentax Spotmatic, one of the first cameras ever made with a built-in light meter. Mine was made by Asahi (not Honeywell), and I bought it back in the mid-70s when my family was living overseas.You and my Dad both, Dad was a big time Nikon guy, has two custom F-2's and a metric ton of lenses and all the accessories!

Awesome! I got as far as dabbling in color slides. I was never gonna be able to afford color printing. Way beyond the scope of my finances back then...@sobo again our history is mysteriously similar - high school yearbook editor here, started in the darkroom in my early teens, ended up with a couple of degrees in photo from up near Kodak and shot Nikon pro for many years. Of course what am doing with it now? I don't even edit my phone pics anymore these days
Cool to hear people are still keeping silver halide alive. I processed everything up to color slides back then and always feel I'll get back to it at some point!
The Pentax used Takumar lenses as the standard supplied lens, which were some awesome glass! Most of the lenses I bought subsequently were Vivitar Series 1.Kodak Brownie here which I should still have kicking around. A significant other who was also a "shooter" back in the day swore by Pentax. How did theirgladglass compare with your Nikons?
