Why have I changed? I haven't, I have both still.

It depends upon the purpose of the shoot. If it is a quick pic of something I really don't care about the final quality I use digital (kijiji ads, insurance documentation, how the motor I am tearing down for rebuild looked through the process).

If it something I want to invest time and produce a great image I use film, either 35mm or 120 format.

That being said, customers want immediate results!

Therefore I know if I am working with a model who only wants a few pics for a web portfolio, I use digital. Whereas, if she is invested in the industry and wants a hard portfolio, I use film.

I would hate to do a shoot in digital and later have someone come back to me and ask if they could use it for a billboard. The largest print I have done from a digital camera is 24" x 36", perhaps others have done larger prints but I have not.

Digital has many advantages but as far as I have seen it the last 31 years of doing this, it can not replace film.

Can a film camera can convert to digital camera?

No. You cannot economically convert a film camera to a digital camera. The digital system is very different and fitting it to an existing film camera is more expensive than buying a new digital camera. Some of the more expensive professional cameras can change between film and digital backs replacing the film transport with digital technology. The replacement backing includes all the electronics and controls typical of a digital camera of that caliber.
