Good compilation! I’ve been shooting digital-only for the last 12 years and tried 35mm film last year. Now my medium format itch became so bad that I ended up buying a Hassy with the 80mm lens to learn new (or old?) things. The mechanical feel of a Hassy is awesome compared to new DSLRs and mirrorless. Everything is mechanically coupled and there’s nothing unnecessary. Just the focus, aperture and shutter speed settings on the lens, mirror lockup button and the actual shutter button and that’s it. This forces me to think about more and planning more before pressing the button.
Also, people have been talking here about developing the negatives itself to minimise the cost. Ended up making a kind of compromise: bought Epson v850 flatbed scanner and taking the film-rolls for development company to get the negatives. The scanners pays for itself really quickly as here one 120 film roll scanning costs 16 euros :D
