With a monochrome you can go out and record 1200 images, edit them down to keepers in a few hours and only be out a couple of cents for the electricity. Then repeat the next day. Film is four bucks, four bucks, four bucks and you haven't processed the film and have no idea your shutter failed at frame 7. The thing with film is that for some artistic expression you can't get what you want without silver or some stunningly good photoshop skills.
