No, most enthusiasts would not say that. Most purists (who would rather live in the past) would say that. Huge, massive, gargantun, oceanic differences between the two.

There's a contingent of photographers who still prefer to use celluloid film, too. Maybe they should both get together and go all steampunk on each other (the photogs preferably with Leicas and Carl Zeiss lenses ... with the odd Minox spy camera thrown in. And using Agfa film, of course.)
