And certainly what he says about huge files from scanned negs and the ability to blow them up to hell and gone is true. But this business of needing a tiny camera to do stealth shooting is utter nonsense. And, btw, I made a point of showing my MPW class an M6, and talked about it's reputation for unobtrusiveness and quiet. Then I fired it, and fired the E-1 DSLR - and once again, just as my MIT class did, this class pointed out that the E-1 makes less noise than the M. I myself am not convinced it's quieter; I am convinced it is no louder. So if the bottom line is that you like film better, that film will give you what you crave and digital won't, or that you can personally get better results with an M or a film P&S - go for it. But it is possible to do the same kind of shooting with a DSLR.
