Thank you! Much appreciated.
Buying a scanner would truly save money. I have a scanner with a kino film adapter tray in it and I have thought of buying a better scanner since it seems that this enthusiasm photographing with old film cameras is not just a temporally thing, but since the scanner in the place where they also develop my film, is so much better and since I seem to lack time, I, for now, settle getting poorer faster and carry my money to the experts there. But a valid point. A proper scanner of my own would definitely save money.

Oh, that makes sense - if the same photo atelier develops and scans. Sounds quite convenient.
To me, it takes about a half of hour to scan a standard 35mm film. I have about three dozens of them waiting for me, lol.
Interesting to find our, how do they return the film to you? Rolled, in its original plastic box?
I'm asking because last year I read an article about long-term storage of films and it appears that storing them rolled deteriorates the film quality with time so I started to gradually move mine to "Hama Negative Sleeves For Film Strips"
And if by any chance I would get more than 4 good photos (in a 120 size roll) that I would want to be scanned with professional scanner, it's cheaper to let them scan the whole film at the same time because afterwards it would be 5€/frame. But of course that's quite optimistic of me, that I could get at least 4 good or excellent photos that are in my mind worthy of a professional scanner. 😁 But as I have payed them to scan the whole film, I must think that every single frame truly is worth my money.
They said the exact same thing when I asked them not to cut the film because I thought it would be easier for me to store it. So it's cut and in negative sleeves which are in paper bags.
