Colour film is more complicated - even I take that to the camera store. Though you can get them to just develop the negatives and then scan them yourself, for a lot cheaper than getting prints.
Scanning color (negative) film can be its own art.
I have a much larger soviet camera: A Kiev 60, which is basically a medium format SLR that looks like an oversized 35mm SLR.
