Not really! Before you can read the notes on your digital cameras, there are a lot of things to do. You have to find a computer to download the photos. You also have to find a printer to print the photos out.
To listen to the sounds from the digital recorder is even harder. There is usually a lot of noise with what you have recorded. You will have to listen to it several times before everything is clear.
In fact, taking notes by hand really helps you to remember and understand what you are learning. You only need to write down key points. You don't have to write down everything.
