I think most pros will tell you that digital may save on film and processing 
(although that is offset by increased computing requirements), but workflow is 
intensified. With film, I send it to the lab. They process it, and print or 
scan it or both. They get things color and density corrected. With digital, 
it's all on me. I may save on direct costs, but labor goes wild. For 
photojournalism, that's ok, because they need it fast, and the printing process 
they work under is, errrr, forgiving.

And that's not including time spent cleaning sensors.
