Wow, I’m just looking at buying a 16mm camera, and you’re showing the same sites and resources I was exploring.

You must be a fellow Canadian then.

Fir US viewers $40 (with tax)per roll, for developing and scan is $65, so all in $105-$150 depending on labs.

All the information I was looking for in one short. Well done! I'm thinking of shooting on 16mm film for a dream sequence in a short film I'm working on so this should be perfect. Extremely helpful video and straight to the point

Buy expired film. It can sometimes give even better results

Can be cheaper. It cost me $425 for 400ft
