Yes and No. "Where photography is going ..." and "Where my photography is going ..." are indeed two very different things. I could care less about scanning high rez video frames to find a good exposure ... I'll never do that, and I don't have any motivation to try. I see no value in it. The precepts of good still photography, after you have learned enough camera technique to set exposure and focus properly, are to learn where to point the camera and when to press the shutter release. Without those two elements, it is no longer photography that I care to do.
So if manufacturers concentrate on producing video/sequence cameras only to the exclusion of still cameras, well, I don't have any compunction to buy them. I have more than enough good cameras in the closet already that do what I need and want, and will likely do so until long after I've lost the ability to press the shutter button. Should I want to capture video, on the other hand, I celebrate their latest and wonderful achievements. -- Elf "Ask not of the Elves for they will answer both yes and no." -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
