Yah I am pretty enthusiatic about digital photography. By going digital you gain so much more control. From Cropping the photo to lightnening up a photo, it is really unbelievable.
One thing I have notice from the die hard film users, they pooh, pooh digital. I think the reason being is the emotional attachment to tradition.
Well I beleive in traditional values, I just don't beleive in traditional consumer products like Black and white television, network television, Typewriters, Polaroids, and even regular phone lines.
Oh and by the way, my first digital was Kodak 4.0 megapixel. I still use for work, as now I consider it somewhat disposable.
Anyway, just my humble opinion

I'm sure there will be purists who use film for some time, just like there are people who still use manual typewriters. Only they have to go online to find ribbons, and the same will happen with the film purists.
Film as a mass consumer product is dead, however. The shots most folks take doesn't need the dignity that real film provides, anyway. The advantages of digital photo manipulation are the only possible salvation for these people's snapshots.
