Nah!  That newfangled high-tech film-thing ain't art!  It may seem easier
than oil on canvas, but darn it, if you enjoy artistry, ....

P.S. - But then, oil paints are a newfangled high-tech item!  Charcoal on
       tree-bark or cave walls is the *proper* way to do art. 
 
P.P.S. - I seem to recall a famous painter who painted color dots and became
         a famous artist with "art" that was very coursely "digitized"!!!!!
         His painting with people in a park is one of my favorites (I have a
         cup with that painting on it).

P.P.P.S. - I'm not one who thinks there's no art in photography, but I
           also don't think that film-photography has any sort of exclusive to
           being art.   Art really isn't technology-based "for" or "against".
	   Technology just makes things different.  And in art, there's no
           sense in arguing "better" or "worse" with anyone.  :-) :-) :-)
