The digitals in the bag have become visual notebooks while the film cameras are like paintboxes, and the question has to be how much innovation can you pay for? The old gear paid for itself quickly, and then started turning a profit on jobs, but you have to run a lot more jobs in the red if you are constantly upgrading the gear as fast as the technology is "improving". And I seldom need more than 7-8 mega pixels, if I'm honest-- after that it's just wasted.
