[QUOTE="Wolfeye, post: 364292, member: 29166"] Oh, I agree, somewhat. But when we talk about third world countries, digital might not make as much sense as film. If they have no reliable electricity then a digital camera with a dead battery is far less useful than, say, "upgrading" the N75 to a FM2n or the like. Likewise, if there are extremes of temperature with cold being a factor, a DSLR (which are all susceptible to cold) makes less sense than, again, the FM2n. Film cameras may also be less likely to be stolen, but even if they are, they cost little to replace. DSLRs are certainly nice, but film does have advantages in certain environments. [/QUOTE]
