Photography Digital Vs Film

Looking for advice on digital SLR vs. film SLR?

I have been intrested in photography for awhile. I currently have a Minolta x-700 35mm film camera and a Fuji FinePix digital camera. Most of the pictures that I take are with the Minolta. I’ve been thinking about getting a digital SLR, but not quite sure what to get. I was wondering if anyone out there might have some advice on the advantages/disadvantages of digital SLR to a regular film SLR.

I would also like if you could give me some insight of which digital SLR you would recommed, that would be great. I mostly take landscape/outdoor pictures (main focus is trains). I’m looking for a camera that isn’t all that expensive (I know that’s hard to find with digital SLRs). Do you think that the price of the digial SLR will decrease at all over the next year or so.

I would like to start selling my pictures and any answers to these questions would help out a great deal.

Thank you.

Unless you have a lot of nice Minolta glass, I would plan on moving to a new system, either Nikon (my choice) or Canon. The new Sony dSLR isn’t rated too highly compared to other available cameras, and Nikon and Canon have way more in the line of lenses and accessories, particularly professional equipment. Much more room to grow!
The price will drop on older models as new ones are introduced more than likely.
