If you need to strap a camera to you or get in a small space, then it makes sense to use digital.I do think it is possible to use a digital camera artistically, but it can only be good if you are using film technique. Film has grain, and digital has pixels, and there is not that much of a difference, but digital does not replace the need to create a scene and light it properly and spend time considering the shot.

Vilmos ZsigmondI think film is about images. Cinema needs good images. I think that if you donโt have good images, itโs not going to be a good film. I think all films should be really visual.
