I am just a old guy that's been shooting since I got my very first camera at the ripe old age of 5. Over the last 55+ years I have seen changes I would never have dreamed possible, even 25 years ago.
I am certain that cell phone formats will one day replace what we Now consider to be the best DSLRs. Just as They have replaced our best top end film cameras from just over two decades ago.
I can't even remember how many dyed in the wool collage "film" kids would ask me "what do you have against film?" Very hostile as well..to begin with that is. When I explained to them that I had used film longer than they had been alive, and breathed in enough darkroom chemicals to last me five lifetimes, they often mellowed out.
When I would point out that the equipment they were using then had the same stigma as digital did to them now..they began to listen even more.
By the end of the art show I had around 12 or 15 new "students" that wanted to learn all they could about digital photography.
They were just uninformed, and closed minded was all. In the end Most of them could see the wonders of BOTH film and digital formats.
I believe the same will happen again, if it's cell phones, or all in one kind of digital cameras that no longer need our long lenses and lights. It IS just a matter of time. I doubt I will be around to see it, but if I am, you can bet I will be out there with those kids seeing just what they can do. I hope to see most of you folks out there as well.
