Well Dan I do have a traditional darkroom but I haven't switched the enlarger on in 2 years. My printing is done digitally. For film I scan using a Nikon 8000 to scan 35mm, 6x6, 6x7 and xpan negs. For digital I use a Canon 10D and Ixus 400. I print using a Canon 9000 printer on Canon papers. My computer is a Mac.
I almost never use 35mm film now but I still use film in my Rolleiflex and Mamiya 7. I am about 80% digital. I always carry a camera and my M6 has been replaced in this role by the Canon digital Ixus 400, not as good but more convenient and plenty good enough for the sort of things for which I use my carry always camera.
cheers
Frank
