Not too long ago it was that digital would never replace film, period. It's just a matter of time before there are digital sensors of that quality. Really.

Keep in mind that as sensors are getting better and cheaper,
film is also getting better. Better films are introduced
into the marketplace that are rated at higher ISOs with
considerably less visiable grain as their predecessors.

It all depends on why you are taking the photo. Is it to
put it on your online photo-album? Or are you shooting
the roll for the print to be used in a art gallery, or a
huge billboard ad?

As always, you should use the right technology/tool for
the job.

You can't beat the price of digital photography when it
comes to your everyday point-and-shot jobs. Those of you
that have growing kids know what I mean. You a get a
4 or 5 mega-pixel camera for almost next to nothing now
a days and the rest is free! You'll never have to pay
for either rolls of film or for developing those rolls of
film.

On the other hand for prints you can't beat what is offered
to you as a photographer in film; especially when we start
discussing medium and large formats.
