Default More on the Mirrorless Battles

I presented EXACTLY what I did.

It's hardly my fault if someone doesn't understand exponentials.

These are forms that represents many things, where something follows
change according to some rate, either negiaive ( i.e. - radioactive
decay, leaking vessel, etc. ) or posative ( i.e. - interest earning
account, etc. ).

The DSLR / Mirrorless issue has both, and follows exponentials quite
closely. I simply presented the relatinships as annual percentage
rates. Round off isn't an issue here.


yes it is. both are dwarfed by smartphones, which continue to improve.

computational photography is the future, not mirror versus mirrorless.

In a nutshell, photography is more popular than it has ever been
take a look at the rise of Instagram or Snapchat, for example,
Skafisk tells PetaPixel. But literally 98.4% of the consumer cameras
sold in 2016 were built into smartphones * only 0.8% were compacts,
0.5% DSLRs, and 0.2% mirrorless.

Come back in a few years, and there won't be
a mirror to be seen anywhere.


yes there will, just not a lot of them.

film is still used even though it's not as good as digital.
