Out of curiosity, what's some of the better film to get for color?

Portra 400 and Fuji 400H are the base (and are ideal) - you'll find different tones along the way and figure out which you like.

I keep mine tagged here, if you want to see:

For a cheaper option, I really like Superia 200/400 too

i have a question for those more knowledgeable than me. ok so say i have two canon ae-1s. both of them have the same 400 iso film in them, but one has a 35-200mm 3.5 zoom lens on it, and the other one has a 50mm 1.8 on it. if i set the aperture on both of the cameras to 5.6, will the shutter speed have to be slower on the ae-1 with the 35-200mm lens on it in order to get the same exposure as the one with the 50mm set at 5.6? i am having this problem with my two ae-1s. i think its because the lens is so long that it needs more light to get the same exposure, even when the zoom is set to 50mm and the aperture is the same.

Thanks Joel, I'm just starting to get into film so I'm back in the learning stages. Also what's a good scanner that doesn't break the bank (<$200)?

Btw your tumblr is awesome, love almost all your photos.

This thread is so inspiring. Need to get back into photography. I'm going to start digging through my photo archives and post my favorites. I'll do them in a mini-series of sorts. Its my first post so sorry if its long and/or the photos are small. Let me know and I'll fix it in the next post! Here's the first batch.
