Black and white film costs the moon these days. I sold one of my older film cameras a number of years ago and the guy who bought it was really interested in the little filters I included with it. I wish him well; I regretted for a few minutes selling it, but then, I was never using it and it was just sentimental that it was my first camera, given me by my dad. Someone is actually using it now. As it is, I hardly use my big digital camera any more, it's all the phone. There are uses for film, and when I was taking photos I mostly shot slides. In this day and age I'm considering using an extension tube setup to make a way to reshoot those slides with the digital camera so I can have the images digitized without spending a small fortune or buying a humongously expensive flatbed scanner.
