I've never shot film. And it seems to me even more cumbersome than digital photography, to be honest.

Developing and printing, yes. But the photography is so much easier. You do have film changes though, with digital you have endless film. But I used to enjoy photography for its own sake when doing it on film and digitally it is more of a documentation tool for me.

For some reason I always seem to 'miss the moment' with digital and with film that rarely if ever happened.

Digital is all about convenience after you've pressed the shutter button.

Shooting digital is MANY more times complicated and cumbersome than shooting film - this is a common misconception of those who have never shot film. It's infinitely more simple and "zen-like".
