Hi all,

It's coming quicker than I forecast. But here comes total disruption in photography:

Bye-bye heavyweight gear. Not tomorrow. But sooner rather than later.

Get ready,
Tony

It will be sad to see the lens go, but progress marches on. I'm sure there was some reluctance to switch from film to digital, most people would say, that was a good move.
I suppose, the main thing is the quality of the image, if it can produce a better end product then I won't be complaining. To also be more affordable is a great bonus.
Further down the track we may be taking holographic pictures, how amazing would that be?.
Thanks for the intriguing post Tony.
