My old Asai Pentax is every bit as complex as a Nikon. Despite its 1980s
origins, it's as reliable today as the day it was built. Film... that's

Really? Down to one maker? Damn.


The real problem is finding some place where the film can be
developed, and prints made.

Walmart, Walgrens and a host of other places still do it. Though most
of Walmart sends it off to Daves in Kansas. But it comes back in about
3-4 days. Not like the old Prinz Camera where you could drop it off,
go for lunch and come back and pick em up...but..shrug
