[filmscanners] RE: Re:Digital PIC
You missed to mention that DIGITAL FILM is re-usable.
Try to multiply 5$ of a cheap film (cost without dev. and contact sheet
etc. ) by 200 ... or more ... the result will be leading to a good reason to
go digital.
Also , digital means post-processing capabilities : color , contrast,
framing etc. etc. easy and fast and OVERALL under my personal control and
decision ... while films are expensive and almost impossible to post-process
properly unless you have a lab at your disposal ... I don't have that and I
guess the amateurs and some pro do not have also.
In my opinion digital doesn't substitute ordinary films , but it is a great
integration either for amateurs either for pros .

Well, if digital cameras fulfilled all the criteria, then film would
have been gone a long time ago. Obviously, it still doesn't.
I haven't yet found a media card that stores the equivalent of 7400
megabytes (36-38 exposures at about 200 megs each), costs under $5, and
fits into a canister that weighs about 2 ounces, and requires no energy
source to maintain the latent image for years, have you?
