Hi! I think I'd like to respond to one particular paragraph from Sylwester modulo Mike's initial posting (the capitalization is mine):
SP> These two technologies has their "pros" and "cons", you can not SP> simply say "digital is better!". You just buy what is BETTER SP> SUITED FOR YOUR NEEDS. As a wedding photographer I would afraid to SP> buy digital, because of the narrow exposure latitude - too much SP> risk of getting unproperply exposed shots - and you can't simply SP> repeat wedding... It seems to appear that for steadily growing number of people some of which are professional photographers or even photographers doing very fine art, the digital cameras are preferable to film cameras. Naturally, it seems to irritate (had to look up the Russian-English dictionary to find the most proper word I thought would apply here) some other professional or very fine photographers who seem to prefer film cameras to digital cameras. That's why this thread seems to going on. Now, the interesting question would be: am I any close to being right and could it perhaps, just perhaps, help this thread to conclude... Really, there is no need to argue here. Indeed one may take a look on the whatever media suits one to make a decision, add to that a look to their pocket and make ultimate decision as to what kind of camera to choose. Then, hopefully, one would share their photography with others, including people on this forum, allowing us to feel a little better every time we look at fine photograph, no matter digital, analog, or hybrid.
