How far are Digital cameras going to evolve? Is it going to be a case like PC's and what is current will not be able to keep up in 2-3 years? Applications need more and more HD space and RAM, I have given away perfectly good computers just because they could not keep up!

Now, I am looking at my poor, old and slow Digital camera. Works fine, battery life is ok, but it is ONLY 1.3 m/pixels. There are cameras now that are 1/4 the size and weight that do that, with better cameras doing 4 time as well, with more features and better battery life.

Does anyone see things settling down like film cameras? You know, a 10 year old body being able to use newer lenses to take more than acceptable pictures?

Making me feel old, wanting to start just using what I've got.

Get yourself upgraded luddite!



SEE!! SEE!!

THIS is what I'm talking about!!


What I'm waiting for is the equivalent of my Yashica body, 3-4 lenses that are capable of doing my hobby stuff and (digital) Ektachrome.

Will my kids, or my grand-kids see this?
