Shot sometime in November on Kodak 200 ASA film, during the breakdown period of my D70. The SB800 in aperture mode definitely saved my arse (combined with the latitude of negative film), as I was metering at least 3 stops under with the lens wide open.
The least crap of the bunch:  
 
Scanned with a Noritsu machine at the local photo labs. Disappointing results, adding to the overall disappointing experience. I'd rather deal with dust on sensor and having the issues of a DSLR than having to go back to shooting film (with no metering, no auto focus, no chimpability).
Sorry you had a dissapointing outing with film Chi, but it looks like it's given you a fresh appreciation of shooting digital, which can't be a bad thing. (Was this the same event Wendell was shooting at ?) Just I don't recognise any of the girls or outfits.
Yeah thanks Craig, you're not wrong - it has given me appreciation of automation. switchable metering modes, the superior flash exposure of Nikon's iTTL system, or even as simple as having a variable ISO setting!
Yeah, I was with Wendell that night. Assiting him when I finished my 19 shots on 1 roll... The models were apparently top notch - Viviens, Chadwicks, Passion Models, et al. They didn't do anything for me either.... which made me question my sexuality somewhat. 
The colour and saturation are really bad, the visible grain is unfungclunctious... I don't know if a better scan would return higher quality pics. I can't justify the expense to find out - I'm chalking it up to a loss and moving on.
Well having had very limited P&S experiences with film, I really take some of the features todays DSLRs have to offer for granted, so it's nice to stop and reflect how much easier, or atleast how many extra options we have over earlier photographer's using less advanced technology. Interestingly enough, I skeptical that the advancement in image quality follows anywhere near the actual advancement of the technology behind it, but perhaps in the great scheme of things we are only at the tip of the iceberg for Digital photography, and as Moore's law pushes on, we and the companies selling the products are the eventual winners.
I swear I haven't touched a drop tonight, but I'm rambling like a madman!
