Default Just got a darkroom setup-

I'm pretty excited. I'll be ordering all chemicals around the 20th of september, hoping to get an assload of film before then.

Does anyone still do film? Or am I alone in this hobby? lol.

By film i mean developing in a darkroom, not going to CVS, haha.

Fixing an old SLR is pointless, I've gotten like 5 for less then 50 bucks, one was 30 bucks with a flash and a wide eye lens kit! Garage sales FTW.

Anyhow I did exactly what you guys are doing, I took photography in school, used their darkroom and fell in love with it. Its been 2 years since then, and I am beyond excited to get started.

I found that most people went on to do digital, though. How weird, I mean why go the cheaper, easier route when you can go the expensive route and have only half of your pics turn out?

Thats what makes it so fun.

Ok done with the rant.

I have an Olympus Trip 35, Cannon Rebel 2000, and some kind of auto-exposure Pentax. I dont like the automatic part, but its a pretty nice quality camera. Made for people who want to point, focus and shoot.

My DPT (daily picture taker) is the rebel, thats my baby.

I have a DSLR, but its for trips and stuff like that.
