hi, i'm tommaso and i' going to make my first reportage on a public housing settlement in my hometown Bari (south italy): i'm going to put my images on digital support and build an hypertext on the quartier; so the question for me is- I love b/w foto and the traditional print system but if i'm going to put photos on the net perhaps it's better or more coherent to use a digital camera: well,i never used it so i really don't know what if the difference. did you had the same problems? please write me at strana_luce@katamail.com

As a newspaper photographer who has used both conventional and digital capture, I can tell you that digital photography is a perfect match for photojournalism. And I would bet that all of the other journalists would same the same thing. If you need any further information you can email me; I would suggest a "check list" of questions that pertains to your research.
