>>2643712there's almost invariably an option at any place that develops film to have it scanned and given back to you as a collection of digital files in some way. They might not offer it on an SD card, you might have to download the things, or get mailed a disc, or something.
Actually the thing you need to watch out for is that consumer places often won't give you your negatives back. You'll always get scans and an option for various types of prints, but the likes of drugstores will toss the actual film - oftentimes even if you ask for it back they'll just tell you "no, we can't return it".
>>2643919Well, when you're dealing with digital files, you're always going to have room to manipulate. For that matter, you have creative choices before you ever get there, based on how you develop the film. Shooting film can be a fun way of getting better at nailing exposure and such, but really what you have to do if you want to post-process less is just... decide to post-process less.
>>2644343Recuva should be able to help. Note that what's important isn't the amount of time that's passed since the file was accidentally deleted, what matters is that the card has not been written to since.
