If you are in some kind of photography where quick reproduction is important like Photojournalism, or Event Photography then you need to get into digital ASAP. If you are into some kind of photography where quality is paramount like Fine Art Photography or High-End Portraiture you need to stick with film.
I have said here before that Media Photography will be 90% digital within five years. Fine Arts Photography will remain primarily film for some time. I will stick to that perdition,with the cravat that quite a few FAP seem to be going to digital reproduction (printing) of their work But, their original media is still mostly film.

I suspect Pentax have a wait and see philosphy but are ready to act on short notice. Well I just hope Pentax make up their mind about the MZd very soon. I had a good look at the review of the D1x and I'm sorely tempted to bite the bullet and change systems. I have funds put aside for a digital body and the more I think about what I could do with a digital SLR, the more impatient with Pentax I'm becoming. Of course if I change systems I'm in for a new lenses and that makes the conversion twice as expensive. But dammit, I want a digital NOW! I'm going to give Pentax a few more months to see if there is any new developments and if nothing is forthcoming, I'm switching. Have you seen what DPReview.com said about the D1x? You have to be impressed. Regards, Max - This message is from the Pentax-Discuss Mail List. To unsubscribe, go to http://www.pdml.net and follow the directions.
