Hi, I have a question about what to do with undeveloped color 35 milimeter film. We shot the film several years ago before my husband lost his job. When he found a new job, it didn't pay nearly as well so we've kept putting off getting the photos developed. There are probably at least 40 rolls. I'm worried that by now, the film may be too old to produce good prints. (Yes, we've since switched to taking digital photos.)
I was hoping to be able to send the rolls of film to Shutterfly or Snapfish until I discovered that they no longer develop film. Since, I can't afford to pay for all the rolls to be printed the traditional way, I considered having the film developed and purchasing a CD so I could print only the photos I want. However, I read somewhere on this forum that the photos captured on a CD would be a much lower resolution. I don't know much about negative scanners. Would that be a better option? Any suggestions?
