Thank you for this very helpful review. I’m sorely tempted to buy one this summer. But how many rolls do you need to be developing of C41 per month to make it worthwhile as the the chemicals don’t last that long?

Good question, Ari! I usually save the rolls to dev them on batches. I like using the chemicals not more than 10 days after opening. What helps is photographing medium format too, because there are fewer shots per roll, making the consumption faster! All in all, if we were money conscious, we wouldn’t be shooting film, right? 😂

Thinking of buying one since you told me about it a while ago… now even more so. I think I’ll get rid of my other setup. Great review!
