Default Any advantages of conventional over digital?


cost to buy in is lower, film shooters shoot much less, there's the old
cliche about folks who have two christmases on one roll. films cameras
have a more responsive shutter, much less lag when you press. if you have
costco or wallmart you can get prints for less than a dime each, have images
scanned to a disk for you.

I found a really nice Olympus Accura Zoom 105 point and shoot 35mm film
camera at a web store. It has a zoom lens range of 38-105mm (3x), but the
reasons for instead buying a digital camera seem compelling enough.

What are the advantages, if any, of a film camera over a digital camera

when
comparing two cameras of the same zoom range?
