And another side: When you carry a film camera which is inexpensive by today's rising digital standard, you have the potential when faced with a stunning subject and great care in taking the picture of creating that once in a lifetime shot that ends up on the wall in a giant sized enlargement. If you opt for an affordable digital in the 2 or 3 megapixel range which makes fine 4 X 6 prints you cut off that creative option. If you opt to get a second mortgage on the house, lose your spouse, and buy an 11-14 megapixel wonder with the same capability as your $10 roll of film you may not find that wonderful photo it is capable of before it is so outmoded in 3 or 4 years as to be embarrassing to be seen with. :-)
