Having read back through the thread it's interesting to see how discussion on a topic can take it off on a tangent worthy of its own discussion (and I am the worst for it!)
Process vs result is a very interesting one and has a significant impact on me. I simply don't connect to my digital images any more. I find them soul-less which then relies on me to do post processing work to "turn them into" something I like. The single exception to this are "memories" type images of family and friends (and lots of pets!) where the "look" doesn't matter to me. In those cases, subject is king and I have some wonderful photos on both film and digital that evoke special memories for me.
When I go out to do photography on my own, if I have a digital camera, I feel less enthused. I feel like I can take a picture of anything, then just "make it black & white later". This doesn't make me feel focussed. If I go out with colour film in a camera, I look for colour as a relevant part of my image. If I go out with black & white I'm looking at tone and shape and form and seeing the world within the limitations of what I've got with me. Perhaps it's my own inadequacy to be unable to "switch" between those two modes and perhaps I should try harder...
There are an awful lot of camera collectors in the film community, and there are a lot of people who look down their nose at digital photographers taking the "easy way out". But for me, film photography makes me enthusiastic about taking pictures. It forces me to actually look at a scene before I photograph it where digital [to me] is simply "I'll take it and see what it looks like later". I prefer the former way of working because it makes me think. I'm inherently lazy and digital feeds that laziness for me.
It's very interesting to read some of the replies above where the process is inconsequential to some people. I've met people like that on my course(s) and they are very often better photographers for it (IMO). It's not me though. My digital work is clearly sub-par to my film stuff and much of it I attribute to my enthusiasm with the camera in my hand.
