I agree on the pollution standpoint of 35mm of course I never actually thought of it before, but I've developed my own film in the past and I can see how dangerous those chemicals are...but they sure smelled good, at least to me.
I don't have a negative scanner, but what I usually do is pay for the 1 hour processing of the negatives only, I have never been satisfied with the results I got at 1 hour photo stands...so I just process the negatives and then take their CD...and retouch in photoshop...
It's almost instantaneous like digital is, I take a picture on a Saturday, and I can have it on my computer by Sunday...of course the instant gratification isn't what I'm looking for in photography...

anytime you scan
"DUST IS THE ENIMY"
I buy compressed air by the truck load
I like having control over the output. I bought a 6400x6400 dpi scanner and the first time I scanned a negative at that resolution I created 1 gigabyte file!!!!!!!!! my system was thrashing so much it took over an hour to see anything and then even the slightest move and it was refresh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
so thinking I was a smart guy, I went into the processor settings to reset the priorities. That was a big time disaster!!!!!!!!!
