One of the advantages of film is that it makes you slow down and think about each shot before snapping the shutter. A medium format roll gives you 15 exposures so the photographer should be mindful of cost per frame. In theory. I went on a 48-hour film bender in the Palouse, blasting through seven rolls. The hangover came when I was handed the bill for film processing at Panda Lab in Seattle. Ouch.
