Well...it's the expense in the first place that i'm worried about. I don't have thousands to spend on a camera...nor do i have 1000 for a sub-par digital camera... I'm not really concerned with film and processing, film is comparitavely cheap and an easy thing to ask for for birthdays, christmas, etc, and developing isn't THAT bad... I think digital would be really nice to have...but until i can get a d-slr for 2-300 bucks, i'm gonna have to go analog. Plus, it's always nice to have hard copies of your shots in case something crashes. coughwindowscough
