>the photo lab next door to my apartment charges $25 PER FRAME

There's a professional darkroom/arthouse an hour from me that rents out for $10 with a $35 per year membership fee.

you'll spend more on gas than on processing

Look at it this way: once you've paid off your dev gear and scanner, you'll be saving money every time.

Scanning just a single roll would pay for a $900 scanner, for example. A D700 or some such and a rudimentary macro setup.

Not OP here - what's the D700 and macro setup for? Do you take photos of the film/photo with it to 'scan' it? I was always under the impression that scanning film meant that a scanner similar to those used for documents was used.

I don't shoot film so forgive my ignorance.

>fee for push/pull
So if I bring them a delta 3200 they will charge me a fee?

Yeah with a macro lens and a light table or a flash to backlight the film you get better results than flatbed scanners. you can bracket your exposures and stitch 10-20 images together to 'scan' a single frame if you really want to capture all the tones and range.

What's the best scanner I can get for 120 6x8 scans
