Go with the digital camera. There not as much of a hassel and they will eventually pay themselves back.

How many pics does a roll of film hold these days? How much to develop? How much does a new roll cost? An sd card (20 bucks)on the other hand can be viewed on the computer, erased then re-used. I've had 753 pics 1 time of nothing. (Well, a tree branch) If I had developed that many rolls of film I'd have been ticked off. Digital in my opinion is the only way to go.

The Moultrie d-40 is 1 of the 3 I have and for $99, its hard to beat.

I bought a Moultrie 4.0 last year and I think I will buy another one tomorrow. Seems like the 1gb chip will hold 1200 or more pictures. I picked up my chip the other day and probably had 100 pictures of crows and a pile of nannies that liked their picture being made. Just deleted them off and will swap that chip out in a day or two. With the film I would have never seen a deer on the film.
