Let’s take a look at a list of attributes and talk about the comparison between the two.
Digital Vs. Film Photography - Top 10 Digital Photography Myths I’ve been hearing to a lot of photography purists talk lately about how traditional film photography is “so much better” than modern digital photography.

Digital vs Film - I've been shopping for a digital camera, and I've come across several arguments in favor of sticking with film, at least until digital cameras are better and/or cheaper. That's certainly worth considering, and I've been using film until now, waiting for cameras to get better and cheaper, so I obviously buy into it to some extent.
Is Film Going Away? - Experience shows us that every time a new, better, cheaper medium, like digital cameras, is invented that the older media survive continuing to do whatever they did best and get better at it, even if they sucked all along.
Digital Camera Vs. Film - Pros And Cons - Consumers have been pretty receptive to the lower priced "point and shoot" models (some 5 million digital cameras were sold in the U.S. during the Christmas 2005 holiday season), but there are still some holdouts.
Longevity of Film versus Digital Images - You might wonder why anyone would doubt the longevity of digital images. After all, being digital they are not subject to heat, moisture, or chemical breakdown. So they are bound to live far longer than conventional film images, which suffer from all of these problems. Right?
Digital photography versus Film for Travel Photography - When deciding whether to buy a digital camera or to stick with film is to consider how many photographs you are going to take. If you are going to take thousands, digital may be a very good idea.
Digital Cameras vs Film Cameras - The debate is on: digital cameras vs. film cameras. Ever since digital cameras first came out, people have been plotting digital cameras against film cameras. Which one is better? Which one is best for you?
Digital Photography vs Film - During the last ten years, digital photography has made a big impact in both professional and amateur photography. There are advantages to both film photography and to the new digital photography and often professional photographers will choose to use one for specific purposes.
Everything Digital Vs. Film - One of the great decisions in camera purchase today is that of digital or film. Each has its own advantages and problems and has a different market. Disclaimer - I have a film bias.
