Digital photography have improved at a very fast rate. There are people, e.g
this guy, who compared the latest digital quality to films. Even medium format is mentioned in the same breath. The weakest link with digital photography I think is the printing technology which hasn't caught up yet within reasonable price. However, digital film doesn't get to be printed at all; nothing is lost.When the two mediums are comparable (or even better with promising newer technologies such as Foveon on the horizon), then digital film will be absolutely the prefered choice. Why? If you look at the artistic quality and volume between users of leica or contax and those of say a good digital point and shoot such as canon g2, e.g here, it's not even close.
