And while the tonal qualities of a digital black-and-white print aren't a match for even a reasonable-quality chemical print, it's a lot closer for colour; the price of a top-quality colour print is enough of a deterrent for most people. No argument on LF vs. 35mm, but I couldn't get most of my shots with a 4x5.
Yes, convenience is also factor. Can't discount that. Luckily we don't have to use glass plates anymore, or I wouldn't be playing around with photography at all. Or carting around one of those big Graphix (sp?) people have mentioned -- I wouldn't have even tried. A DSLR's main attraction for me is the increased convenience. Someday... Marnie aka Doe
