Yeah, digital isn't quite there yet, but it's definitely getting better. I'm thinking that film quality digitals will be practical and affordable soon.
well, i think FIlm will be up their since some can get qualitys @ huge pixel rates (well not pixels but it would take 4 gigapixels to match this. so @ least 20 years b/f digital passes film. (Note I am talking about Static not Motion pictures)
Digital is definitely the way to go. They look pretty good to me and the most important aspect of digital photography is the fact that they are easy to transfer from PC to PDA to anything else. They can also be manipulated easily too because they are already in digital form.
