  1. If the cost of slides bothers you, look at it this way - from B&H Fuji Sensia is &3.09 and the mailer is $3.99. Add in the $0.74 for postage and it'll cost you a total of $7.82, or about 22c per image. Yes it will take about 10 days, but if you're cosidering mail in service for prints...

     

    Provia (pro version of Sensia) is $3.99 - both are fairly neutral films. You'll pay less per roll if you order 20 at a time.

  2. Consider slide film - processors don't mess it up,(often!) you get excactly what you shoot, you can still have prints made but only from your best shots - ie you don't waste money making 36 prints when you really only want 1 from the roll, and when you view them, they look like jewels compared to machine prints. You'll learn a lot more from slide than you will from print in the early stages of your photography.
