is manual photgraphy obsolete yet? if not, at what dpi are you all willing to accept the digiphoto as film quality.
i myself see the difference now as only in the journey, not the destination. in a sense it seems we have lost something sacred. no? photoshop is lotsa fun, but many people feel disillusioned (in the bad sense.)
in short, can you create the moment now instead of capturing it?

dude if she actyally knew what she was talking about... no digital camera nowadys is capable of capturing images say with the resolution of 4x5 negative. That said all fashion photography is shot with this or larger negative and then heavily Photoshoped. Moreover the digital cameras still have the limitation of the chip which is still less sensitive than film. Now dodn't get me wrong, i love the whole digital thing. If not then fact that one can get faboulous 3 chip digital camera i wouldn't hev guts to be making my feature film (i know, now we are talking about movies). I find it faboulous than one can create say digital effects for his movies using home computers and those effects won't be that much worse than those comming from Hollywood (for that matter i say The Core the other day and wal laughing at the low, low quality of their effects -- someone stole humongous amount of money).

digital cameras aren't the best,
they're better.

I think you mean analog vs. digital. But I knew what you meant.
