In addition to what Dave said, note that an image must be "restored" in order to be used. This is not only an extra step, it doesn't always work according to plan - and when it doesn't, "game over." A clone, by contrast, is immediately usable, and the files, being identical to the originals, are not subject to the risk of imperfect "restoration."
IMO, images made sense when disk space was at a premium. At today's FW disk prices, the argument for using them, given their inherent riskiness, has largely disappeared.
