You've never ever wished you'd shot anything on cheaper film? Not even
the ones which were out of focus, or which were wrongly exposed, or
where the subject moved, or where you accidentally opened the camera
back before you rewound the film, or where you forgot to change the film
speed dial, etc etc? I've got LOADS of photos I wish I'd shot on
cheaper film!! Or perhaps not shot at all :)
