Digital photography has numerous advantages but it is not immune to flaws. This is why photographers are saying that film photography may be dying but it is not dead. But many photographers have transitioned into using both film and digital means to capture and save their work. Unfortunately there are still those who use film cameras that use the 35mm format most often in their work than digital cameras.
This is more of preference, quality and power issues. They say that the digital cameras require more power to use. For example, in wedding photojournalism, film format lend more detail. They used to say that a 35mm film format holds more pixels per se than a regular digital camera. But DSLRs with 12-14 mega pixels are easy to use and has a lower cost per shot. More and more these days the line between the quality of the picture gets thinner and thinner. So in the case of the number of shots and cost, digital photography has the advantage. A photographer can take candid pictures now and sort them out later. This allows for a wide range of expressive storytelling. But in most digital photography courses, professors stressed that the requirement of ethics must be applied in digital photography.
