You can have my gun, but you'll have to pry my dslr from my cold, dead, hands. DSLRs will disappear eventually, all tech changes. But to claim that they can replace them now? Kinda silly... What did photographers used to say, just a few years back about film cameras versus digital? It seems that about half of the argument against P&S cameras is justified, and half of the argument is just a defensive posture of the inevitable. I rather suspect that a good 10mp P&S makes a better picture than older DSLRs of only a few years ago. At some point, most people will probably go with the smaller, lighter, option. Nope, not yet because they keep raisingMP counts. My 3 1/2 year old Pentax DS still takes very good noise free photos. |

How you misread any of the above to admit(?) that real professionals all use DSLRs, is beyond me. It's an observation about those who are so stupid as to think they need a DSLR to be a "Pro" and throwing away exorbitant amounts of money in their attempts to do so. C'mon steve, are you reading usenet through your coke-bottle-bottom glasses again, and then just hitting the reply button, typing anything, and hoping it will make sense to someone other than you? No, wait. I've got it figured out. You are hoping someone will try to explain your ideas to you so they will finally make sense to you. That's it, isn't it. Stick your fingers in your ears and hum a tune, then you also don't have to actually take in any audio information while you sit there imagining what you want to see. I'm beginning to understand now why there's so little worthwhile photography in the world. With people as unperceptive as the "Steves" displaying an interest in photography how can any of them know when and where to click a shutter-button at the right time, let alone anything else. |

As they improve and as more people realize how much more efficient they are for all purposes, then yes you will see D/SLRs disappear. Just as you saw all view-cameras disappear nearly a century ago at all major events. Yeah, sure. Call me when you see a Panasonic FZ28 show up on the sidelines of a night football game. I shoot HS sports in weak lighting, and I need to shoot at ISO 6400. Yeah. I get it. You are obviously not a "Real Pro" like the OP. With a little more skill perhaps he will soon be able to acquire his stunning images (none of which has ever been seen) without a camera at all! Whatever gave you the impression any of his multiple personalities require a camera? It's all in his deranged mind. -- savvo orig. invib. man |
