What Reliamence Does The 35mm Film Camera Retain In The Presence Of Digital Technology?
The principles of the 'burning' an image onto a chemically prepared strip was the technology which could produce a tangible snapsot of real conditions. At this stage of the openning of possibilities; we have the ability to electronicly record, distort or even create an image both tangible & in the memory chip. Has the film camera really been reduced to a future antique?

So the closeness of the printed dots of a properly developed 35 mm film can not be matched by a quality digital image? Using a better grade digital camera without enlargement, the finished picture, at the intended print size, would a noticeable difference have someone choosing the 35mm each & every time. I'm forced by work to now take digital so that day's photographs are able to be sent with the email report. I'm still planning to take my personal photos with what I got.

The thing about 35MM is that there are no dots - its as smooth as an artists paintbrush. You are right about unenlarged digital, it looks great but if you blow it up it gets grainy quickly.
35mm still takes better pictures than all but the most advanced digital cameras. I know it's more expensive and not as easy to work with as digital but the technology is so mature that it is hard to beat.
One reason why I think 33mm will be around for a long time is that it isn't easy to represent things perfectly in digital format - consider something like 1/3 - a computer wants to think of it as .33333333 (and so on) but it is never quite as accurate as the original fraction. Digital pictures are very close to the original image but they aren't able to represent it perfectly. Add in "compression loss" and you'll start to see why iMax isn't digital yet.
