Shoot black and white film and develop it yourself at home they said. You will save money.
OK boomer.
I just did the math today, I need $320 of equipment to do the developing, that classic old film camera that all the articles talk about being $20 are now all $300.
And yes the roll of film is $10 but I just spent $620 getting a camera and setup.
4 rolls of film per month at $10 each is $480 per year. O yeah also my developing chemicals only last one year so need replacing each year. So thats another $100 per year in the future to.
So in summary
year 1 costs $1100
year 2 costs $580 ($1680 total so far)
year 3 costs $580 each. ($2260 total so far).
and this just keeps on going and adding up.
All just to shoot 1 roll of 36 black and white photos per week.
Beware anons, their are no savings here whatsoever
