Several years ago, a friend who is a camera geek told me that the switch to digital by professionals was very abrupt. Two things happened at roughly the same time. A digital picture made the cover of Sports Illustrated and the airlines started xraying carryon baggage. Since this started as a disk space discussion, there is a neat trick that generates lots of data. If you want a picture with fantastic depth of field and your subject is holding still, you can get it. The camera takes a series of pictures focused at different distances. Software sorts it out. If you have seen a fantastic picture of an insect, this is how it happened. -- These are my opinions. I hate spam.
