How much longer must we endure digital photography hype?
Digital photography is fine for family snapshots, news hounds, and fashion photographers, but for true art please give us a break already. Every digital or even high end digital print I see looks like complete rubbish and I visit many real galleries. You will not see me forking over money for an object of art that was autocalibrated and output by a machine, zero intrinsic value. If I wanted a poster I'd go to posters.com. Give me a traditional hand made 12x20inch platinum contact print any day. The day epson, sony, and panasonic stop telling us to buy their still video cameras, printers, inks, and papers will be a great day indeed. The day people quit believing all of this hype will also be a great day. Just look at Outdoor Photographer Magazine.. every shot in the magazine is shot on film since film is superior, yet the entire magazine is chock full of digital ads and articles.. that should tell you something. Don't believe this ridiculous hype, keep it real.
