-100 for avioding the fact that we're talking about getting a
good picture which is more than just getting teh correct
exposure.


And to which using film adds nothing other than being harder and
more expensive.

adds plenty, if you employ a photographer you expect them to know
what they are doing and how to get the best ressu8lts quickly and
effecintly. Which is why people pay for photographers.

My company paid for a professional photographer to do some pictures,
after he had done it I took some pictures of my own. Guess which ones
worked and which were taken with a digital SLR.

any brain dead moran can take a picture nowadays, but professonal
photographers are still employed.


And most of them don't use film for a good reason, digital is now better
than film in just about everything.

People who insist that it needs film to be a photographer are living in
the past. Photography is a wide subject and photography with film is a
very narrow bit of it.

Even if you want to learn the basics a digital camera is going to be
better, you can try what you are learning and see if it works, without
waiting a day or two to see.
