As an employee in the photo-finishing division of Kodak, Stick with film;-).
Eventually we will be tearing out our nasty chemicals for racks and racks
of hard drives, printing on glossy with a dry process, but for now film
is the superior media. Don't get me wrong though, digital cameras have their
place too for conveniece but until inkjet or colour laser printer technology
improves nothing beats a real photo. Now a digital camera image printed with
a crt printer onto photograpic paper... pretty damn good too.
For a digital camera, purchase the highest resolution that you can afford.
Better a higher resolution with less bells and whistles than a low res that
reminds you your anniversary is coming up. Borrow one or two if you can and
ask other owners. Well, seems you already have. There's nothing worse than
paying $400 or $500 for something you don't like or won't use.
Later.
Take lots of photo's!
