No, but it answers my question. I don't think I'm an imagist in that
sense.

I think the web-site I referred to was using the word 'imagist' to
mean people who use film cameras AND people who use digital cameras
(with whatever intent). Perhaps they think you can't call people
photographers if they use digital cameras. But we've been through
that one before.

'Image maker' is a much better term than 'imagist', by the way.
