Yeah, I agree. Sony Imaging is doing well, but investors like Loeb are only interested in short term profits.

It's unclear what's really going on here. Recently, Daniel Loeb, an investor that previously pushed to essentially defund camera development to promote the growth of Sony Entertainment group...

Leica could make a cardboard pinhole camera, give it away for free, and people would be arguing whether it was worth the money and saying the free Fuji had better features.

@M Lammerse - yeah, I think hammers can look pretty damn sexy. What have you got against hammers?

Generally, people call others the names they feel apply to themselves. So, cretin is, as cretin does.

Adobe is a public company, take a look at their earnings reports. The switch to subscription model was really about locking in revenue in perpetuity and the earnings reflect that.

Use Instagram, don't use Instagram. It's free.

Plenty of people have mastered Instagram and made a business out it, just because you can't, don't blame it on the tools.

Ultimately, who cares....

Lack of mobile support != useless <for me>

I only edit on a desktop OS machine, so, not a problem.

Just out of couriousity, but doesn't the shift from print to web for ads and content mean there was less demand for studio work and so, products supporting that would see a decline in sales. Isn't...

If you don't care, why do you bother to respond? You obviously do care. I can't say why, I'm not sure why I care, but for some reason I do. Maybe we're just passionate about the tools we use. I...

I have used an SL, I always do my own testing with cameras to see if it's a tool that will make a difference in *my* work. The answer is, no, it's not worth the money. I do not see an appreciable...

Oh my god the comments are hilarious. You know what I love about you people, you're so serious about something as meaningless as cameras. I mean, we're facing planetary extinction, and this is what...

Just wanted to thank Jim for sharing his wealth of knowledge, his time, and patience with all of us. I find your website very informative, and considering my knowledge of these topics fairly ...

Yeah, long-term cost of ownership depends on the use one gets out of the tool. Journalism, weddings, studio, all have different ways to calculate the cost:benefit of a given setup. I don't care...

The great thing about being an artist? I can choose my tools and use them how I like. Computational photography with my iphone? Sure. Black and white film and darkroom prints? sure. Some eventual...
