I learned on film as a kid, and sometimes I miss the idea of it a little, too. Then I think about how, today, I can take a hundred macro shots of a busily hunting wasp at zero incremental cost, then very quickly and easily "develop" the half dozen already excellent keepers to really bring out the same vivid colors and sharp contrast my mind's eye saw in the viewfinder image, and then make large-format, gallery-quality prints for $5 each in materials on a printer that cost me a hundred bucks brand new. And I don't miss the idea of film at all.
