I have to admit that I haven't shot a single frame of film since about April 2012. Two rolls of film still sit in my Leica M7 and Contax T3 from that time, and I haven't been able to shoot the rest of them.
For me, shooting film is something special, so I keep it for occasions and places that warrant it. But since I rely on a lab to develop and scan, I prefer not to shoot family or other personal things, so I'm left with ... what?
Funnily, I shot a lot more film when I was learning about how film worked and in that transitional period between small sensor digital cameras and my first DSLR. After the large sensor cameras entered my life, I all but stopped shooting film, and since then it has been very sporadic.
I bought my M7 after falling in love with my M9, and I had the somewhat romantic notion that I might shoot with the M7 about half the time. Certainly, it feels and handles much more nicely than the M9. As I got to use it, I thought that if things went well, I might add a MP, even an a la carte version. But the individual cost of the buy-dev-scan-print process just didn't appeal to me after a while, and the last full rolls of film I shot were in 2010, while my M9 was in for servicing.
As a crazy idea, I may shoot black and white film on a fairly regular basis, and just stash them in the fridge or freezer. In some years, I'll finally get around to learning how to develop my own black and white film, and discover all sorts of forgotten images in those rolls. My own found photos, as it were.
