It might be useful to point out that film and digital respond very
differently to long exposures.
With film, grain is constant; it doesn't change with the exposure
length.
With digital, noise is additive, and the longer the exposure, the more
the noise. That's why CCD imagers for astronomy are cooled to liquid
nitrogen temperatures.
Don't use a hammer to pound a screw, and don't criticize digital for
having different strengths and weaknesses from film. Use the right
tool for the job!
