1st Speed, is one thing. 2,5 fps and 36 shots in a row. No Pentax DSLR can do that.
2nd Annother thing is that there's NO crop factor. Meaning more wide angle for the buck. 3rd It's so easy to shoot a film, give it to the lab and then pick up nice photographs. No hazzle with editing in the computer, cropping, resizing, printing etc. When the last shot is finished, your work is already done! Digital photography is for people that are either rather uncritical or have a lot of time on their hands. That three very good reason to shoot film.

I'm not doubting your word, just mulling the digital switch.
