So for my black/white photography class we've got a project due. Instead of spending endless time trying to create a shot in 35mm film is there a way I can replicate my digital shots into film? Can I take some shots on my 350D, hand off the CF card to some lab and they put it on a roll for me? Or better yet they make them into negatives?
Thanks in advance.

The only way I know of would be to print them as large as you can get, and photograph them.

You could google "film recorder", but I would check with the instructor to make sure it is an acceptable way to go.

ISTR that Minox provided that service... (digital file up to 12Mp or so to b/w neg I think)
edit: Googled but couldn't find it. Did find this one: Click (http://www.photo.net/bboard/q-and-a-fetch-msg?msg_id=009QWT). The first link in there should help.
A pro lab might also be able to shoot a digital file to transparancy film. I've had that done.

So, you want to cheat?

It's an acceptable method as long as we process the prints ourselves in a darkroom.
Thanks for your help guys, unfortunately it doesn't seem like there's anyone in my area that could produce the result I want.

What's wrong with just shooting film in a 35mm SLR or even an older film point-n-shoot? Learn the processes involved. That knowledge will make you a better photographer.

Hear, Hear! and it is lots of fun to shoot film every once and a while :D
