No, you don't use film on a digital camera.

That's a great thing! There's no film to buy. There's no developing to pay for. And there's no wait to see your photos.

Digital is instant. You can see the photos right away, so you don't miss a family photo or a vacation picture that you wish you had later.

You can also purchase a printer and make photo prints anywhere the camera can go.

Good quality prints, if that's what you want, can be made from your camera or its memory card at any drugstore, or you can get great quality prints shipped directly to you from places like http://www.bayphoto.com or http://www.snapfish.com
