Skeeter...I own both 35mm and a new 4 megapixel Olympus...One of the digital camera weaknesses is the lCD monitor on it ...if it is locked in a hot car it will be destroyed. I leave the digital for family shots and other nonhunting activities and use the 35mm for hunting. The Olympus model I have is simply outstanding and the pictures are unbelievable but I would not want to knock it or any other digital around. If there is one exception it would be the Canon Elph series digital. The body/chassis are made of stainless and are very compact. Hope that helps
