    With the invention of paint brushes made of hair... there went the art of painting.

    What has the final image ("the ART") got to do with the tools (film or digital)?

    I suppose Rembrandt stopped being an artist the day he put down his oils and picked up a crayon.

    It could be argued that digital photography has increased the scope for art in photography as the photographer is no longer limited by what the technician or chemist formulates.
