John "And at what point does digital pass emulsion as far as resolution?" This is a more complex question than it might seem. My Fujifilm 4700 2.3mp produces photos of higher detail than my little point and shoot film Pentax. When comparing prints, the digital clearly show more detail. Most folks seem to use an APS, disposable, or point and shoot film camera. I think for many of these people, digital has effectively passed film. On the other end of the spectrum are photographers who use large format film cameras. For these photographers, digital still has a long ways to go. The middle ground of film cameras is where much of todays comparison focuses, and the digital versus film debate will probably go on until the film diehards grow very old. In the meantime, for the larger low end market maybe we are already there? From an investors perspective, I believe that getting a decent 2-3mp digital camera to market for under a hundred dollars will be a more significant advance than a 20mp monster that bests professional level film cameras.
