Is digital better than film ?

The best digital cameras and the best film cameras both offer the very highest quality in photographic images but where they differ is in their ability to cover all elements of your big day.

Traditional, medium format, film cameras sit on tripods whereas professional digital cameras hang around your neck. The difference being that the former needs the wedding to perform in front of it whereas the latter can follow the wedding with minimal intrusion and, in doing so, capturing the informal and fun shots so popular with todays couples.

Add in the ability of digital cameras to handle varying light levels without fuss and the end result is that a wedding shot digitally should provide you with a portfolio that really is your wedding day rather than just selected parts of it.

So yes, digital is better than film in so much as it matches the very best quality of the top film cameras but provides much broader and more flexible coverage of your day.
