The *ist-D may not be my favorite but it has become my most used. I'd
probably use a film camera more if I
had a b&w darkroom but the convenience of digital capture for a computer
geek with 3 relatively high powered
computers is unmatched. A wet darkroom would equalize that somewhat,
but alas I have nowhere to put it.
The local labs have been rapidly going out of business, sadly both the
relatively good as well as those who truly deserve
it.
I'm just glad that I have a DSLR option that will all of my lenses, and
in some cases improves the quality of their
output.

I was thinking about this little "survey" earlier, and how few of the

counted replies and made any effort to organize or tally the results, but,
just from reading, it seems, even amongst digital users, one or another of
the older, film based (and most often manual) cameras are the favored ones.

Btw, the *istD is the tool I use most, but doesn't even come close in
terms of
being a favourite tool.
