I'm not ready to bite the digital bullet yet. I like the negatives. I like to be able to get a good photo print. So..., this is what I've been doing.

I take the photos with my Pentax 105WR or canon A1 with Fuji negative film. Typically 200-800 ISO. Then I use kodak photo developement and check the photo CD box. 2 days later I have photographic prints, negatives and photo CD (1536X1024). From Costco or K-Mart that'll run me about 11 bucks. Safeway is about 15.

The plus is the photo print, negative, and a high quality scan. I can also develope a lot of film for the price of most digital cameras. The minus is waiting 2+ days. Also they don't have this service for slides.

So I got a question. Lets say I drag out my medium format camera at the next kayak meet. What's a good, user friendly affordable way of getting digital images from 120 film?
