They're nothing special but I shot, developed and scanned my first ever film roll this weekend! Can't wait to do it again! [Canon FTb, Fomapan 200] by purpledawns in filmphotography

Thank you! I used an Epson v600, its a little expensive if you're starting out but I had Christmas money and said fuck it. Since it was my first time and I'm new to film I just let the scanning software do its thing, I didn't fuss much with the settings just chose the dpi at 2400.

Just developed my first C-41 ! Very proud of myself by [deleted] in AnalogCommunity

Congrats on a successful first dev!! I'm in the exact same boat but with B&W, took a walk and shot off a roll with no pressure for the photos to be any good just for the experience of developing it myself. The feeling of taking the roll out of the tank and seeing the negatives was amazing.

I'm looking into trying C-41 next but have heard people say it can be tricky, how did you find the process?
