The film is cheaper than the equivalent 135 format ones (hey, only 10-15 exposure only mar). NPC 160 in 120 format costs $4 or so. Processing cost is the same. Printing cost is a bit more expensive. A 8R print from 120 format film is roughly $8 (vs $6 for 135).

You can shoot slides. Anyway, the 645 MF cameras are rather affordable compared to high end SLRs and D-SLRs.
