That's what I did. Got a Canon S80, 8mp, manual controls, live
histograms, 2.5" LCD.

Images easely print to A3+ size without any upsizing. I like the
convenience, etc but I'm keeping my film camera. 

B&W prints originating from both cameras have a totally different look
with film looking more natural but yet digital looking so much more
clean and punchy.

I still havent decided which one I like better.

Cheers,
Andre
