I've just been reading about the 1997 Nikon Press Awards, here in the UK.

Interestingly enough, the winner of the 'Press Photographer of the Year'
award - Ian Waldie of Reuters - had included six images taken on a digital
camera in his winning portfolio of eight pictures.

In the world of press photography, film isn't dead, but it's beginning to
smell a little funny :-)
