Ektar is a more realistic product that the film nerd would be shooting, the processing is less arduous, and much cheaper than processing slide film. Processing is cheaper for C-41 vs E-6 as well, it'll cost you between 10 and 20 dollars for develop and scan. I prefer film because I learned how to be a photographer on it, and it looks just how I want it to look out of the box. Beyond that, certain kinds of photography, like long exposure just look better on film.
