Thanks for the tip. Everything goes on ebay today!
I am getting much, much better pictures from my digital cameras and digital processing than I ever did from film prints. That's all because of technology, not my photographic skill. I said goodbye to film and hello to digital, and I'm not going back.

Just what is a rank amateur?

When you say "warmth and color" don't you mean the chemistry of the film and subsequent developing are altered resulting in an increase in the red end of the spectrum and amount of color saturation in the final print? Oh wait; that's exactly what we can do with DSLRs and post processing. Are any professionals out there using both film and digital? It would be interesting to hear their thoughts.
Shhhhh. You'll drive the cost of film bodies up on eBay.

As a rank amateur, I have only been taking photographs since buying my Asahi Pentax Spotmatic while in the Navy in Japan (1968). I didn't take as many photographs in the Far East as I should have due to the cost of film and limitations of a sailors pay. I liked Fuji film as it gave me brilliant colors. But things were hit or miss as to whether I got the shot. I took a picture and hoped that my exposure and composition was right. If I knew what composition was.
Although digital plays greatly to the "instant gratification" crowd, it is also such a wonderful teaching tool. I can review, delete, and reshoot without the time and expense of film.
Without digital and the non-expense of experimentation, this rank amateur wouldn't be spending part of his retirement reading UHH and enjoying this fine hobby.

PS - my hearing is no longer acute enough to distinguish between my 500 vinyl records and my 300+ CDs. It all sounds like music.
Sorry anyone who took my post seriously. I was simply playing off what has happened in the music recording industry when CD's were claiming they had the best sound ever. Until many folks sold their LP collection, the trend reversed.

Digital large format sensor cameras aren't here yet. At least none the average photographer can afford.
