Digital is the way to go unless you want to play in a darkroom with old
chemicals and such.
Several years ago, a friend who is a camera geek told me that the switch to
digital by professionals was very abrupt. Two things happened at roughly the
same time. A digital picture made the cover of Sports Illustrated and the
airlines started xraying carryon baggage.
Since this started as a disk space discussion, there is a neat trick that
generates lots of data. If you want a picture with fantastic depth of field
and your subject is holding still, you can get it. The camera takes a series
of pictures focused at different distances. Software sorts it out. If you
have seen a fantastic picture of an insect, this is how it happened.
