Advantages and Disadvantages of Digital Photography

One of the advantages that digital cameras provide is the fact that it
is largely practical and convenient. There is lesser cost in the long
run as one need not buy films anymore and will need not develop the
pictures the old fashion way. They would only need to charge the
batteries, get a reasonably large memory stick and they are good to
go.

Hardly a report just very limited and obvious answers.

For me my No.1 grip is the problems with wide angle lenses and moiré-ing.

No.2 is there is no future value in the bodies and have to be regarded as
disposable. In fact from a professional point of view it would be better to
lease SLR bodies or large format backs and buy lenses.
Just the tip of the iceberg.

Which really just brings photography into line with the rest of
technology (speaking as someone whose loft is full of computer parts,
printers, monitors, modems, etc etc).

I still prefer film, especially the Black & White kind.
A bit of a dinosaur but it's cheap and better quality
and one doesn't have to keep up with technology buying the latest gizmo's
etc

I was hunting around today to see if there are any credible articles
reviewing the state of play of analogue vs. digital photography for
various levels of equipment. I didn't find anything and wondered if
anyone knows of such articles.

I was hoping to see how image qualities vary with the various types of
equipment from budget compacts, through DSLR and upwards.

I am in a similar position and only recently started to feel that this
may be the time to go digital. Playing with a couple of Nikon DSLR
models, I was surprised how responsive they are compared to the ancient
digitals I have used before. I am curious to see how the images compare
though.
