Digital vs. Film SLRs
Original Message   Mar 9, 2005 4:01 pm
So has anyone figured out how many pictures you have to take on average to warrent purchasing a digital camera in order to offset film processing costs?

I agree with you as far as the point and shoot camera's out there.  However the panasonic and cannon I have tried have some nice advanced features as well.  The bonus is that they are no where as bulky as the slr's and still produce great results.  Plus they can be as basic as a point and shoot and the person can grow into them as well.

Hi Roger,

I guess that depends on how much you spend on the film, the processing and the camera. And how long you keep your digital camera. Purchasing and processing transparency film today is expensive, total about $30 - 40 per roll, so ten rolls would buy an intro digital.
