I have a question: I cannot decide what to choose. =(

I love the two sizes photos ofthe Diana mini, but I find its design too feminine;

I like te photos of the Diana F+, but I've heard that it was difficult to have that kind of film developed;

I also like La Sardina's features, they seem quite complete, but don't like the design so much. Anyone's opinion? :)

I can't comment on the Diana mini because I haven't shot with it.  The Diana F+ is a great camera and as you can tell from the video, there's a bit of unpredictability in the results. With that being said, 120 film isn't that hard to get developed. Most local labs in stores such as CVS, Walgreens, Walmart, etc. simply send the film out if they offer 120 development. If they don't, I can offer a list of top notch professional labs that develop 120 film.

Also, If you like the Diana F+, but aren't sure about 120 film, you can always purchase the 35mm back for the camera.

I also don't know much about the La Sardina, but the great guys at the Film Photography Project have reviewed the camera, so head over to their site to check it out.

Hope this helps! If you have any additional questions, I'd be glad to help answer them.

Thanks for the compliment! The color images in the video were shot on Lomography 100 Color Negative Film. The black and white images were shot on Ilford Delta Pro 3200 film. Lomography film is available through the Lomography store and I purchased the Ilford Delta Pro from Freestyle Photographic Supplies.

teaganffion: I had my film developed at Blue Moon Camera and Machine in Portland, OR. I didn't have prints made; however, Blue Moon also specializes in printing, which they still do optically. I've also had digital prints made at mpix. I highly recommend BlueMoon if you're looking for a lab.

@MrJbenning Thank you for helping! I'm trying to stay away from 120mm, because if I don't want to have to search for a professional lab in every place I go to. I'm going to chek that website right now :)
