The way you put it, Aperture, Shutter speed, and focus - that does still apply, in that regard, nothing has changed, only the medium (what its recorded on)!

Picasso and Rembrandt never had Photo Shop and they did just fine. [/quote]
People think technology started with Windows opening the Internet to us, or the atomic bomb, or airplanes. But it was technology that allowed the Sumerians to conquer the first Western civilization (3000 BC to 1000 BC)--mobile armies on horse and chariot; the Greeks and Romans to build the Greco-Roman civilization (1000 BC to 1000 AD)--armor and ships, cement and the arch; and the Barbarians to build the modern world (1000 AD to present)--the technologies of modern science such as gunpowder for industrialized war, rigid columns to support tall buildings, and the clock for world navigation.
The Greeks had one word, "techne" for our two words, "technology" (scientific know-how) and "technique" (the know-how of arts and crafts). The digital camera exemplifies both, yes?

Sorry--I forgot my point: Rembrandt had the new science of chemistry for colors and oils. The Impressionists had the new brushes that were flat rather than round (machine made). Picasso utilized industrial mass production for art. In college I had a friend who had a Picasso ash tray (signed by machine)--$5.
