you have to worry about being able to recharge the camera batteries,
finding somewhere to download data off the camera every so often (or
take enough CF cards with you to cover the amount of photos you're
likely to take) etc.
Ye gods. I get about 500 pictures on a $100 1 gig CF with a 8 megapix
Nikon. Sometimes I can shoot that many on a single charge. How much
space and money is consumed by 14 rolls of 36 exposure 35mm? Next time
you look for film, look for memory cards. They're there, too.
You like analog cameras and lots of pictures? Great, take one
along with your digital. You're stingy with film and you don't even
realize it. You won't be with digital.
