Chris and Linda,
It will be interesting. I think I would place my bet on digital. But if the price of one of those good medium- format cameras goes way down there, well... The quality of those images will be hard to match even with great digital. In the end it will come down to price. It may be that in 5 years film cameras will go the way of the 8 track tape. Last year I bought a Mamiya 645 severely used on e-Bay. I think I paid $400 for body and lens. I use it to take some of the window light shots indoors.
More and more, for what I do, I don't really need the hyper-quality image. If I were doing professional photography, that's another thing. And for all the image manipulation that goes on from camera to PC, the digital seems to win hands down.
