A lot of people end up digitizing their film anyway, so is it worth it to keep shooting film? Chemicals and development are just getting more expensive over time. Access to darkrooms are an additional cost. I can see black and white and certain alternative processes sticking it out. But if you're shooting color, why not digital? I'm pretty much all digital these days with the exception of poloroids. If I'm shooting film I'd prefer medium format or 4x5, but occasionally I'll throw a roll of 35mm in a camera for fun.
