Writing such as this is more likely the result of a compensated
inferiority complex.

ways" in the name of professionalism is a fine way of looking down
one's nose at all who differ from one's own way of doing things.

This blog post by Erwin Puts rang a few bells for me, and I suspect it will for
some of you as well:
http://www.imx.nl/photo/page152/page152.html\
Puts is a Leica guy but they used to say that Pentax is the Japanese Leica...
Lots of comments in the Leica Users Forum about Puts' post:
http://www.l-camera-forum.com/leica-forum/customer-forum/176273-new-blog-entry-erwin-puts.html
Many of them have the same criticism of his writing/composing style as the posts here. I
hope that his thoughts will not get lost in the criticism of his style; his arguments for
the "old ways" are worth considering, and some of his criticism of our digital
era are on target IMO.
