All the technology, storage and features of digital cameras still would count for nothing without the intelligence of the cameras operator behind it. If anything some of the automatic focus features help you to concentrate more on the artistic content of your captures rather than be distracted or worry about wasting film. I agree with Girsempa, Technology has really helped. There's still a place for film just as people still love vinyl records. They have a quality that digital can't reproduce. It's just different, not better or worse.
