It seems to be a race as to which company can out-do the other with new tricks and more megapixals and more sales. It seems that when you buy their latest stupendous miracle wonder for umpteen bucks they make an even more stupendous miracle for less money and the one you just bought six months ago becomes worthless.
It seems, just like vinyl records and turntables, my old Hasselblad and Leica R6.2 film cameras are holding their own quite well.
Since my FujiFilm FinePix 4900 Zoom which I bought about 2 years ago is now considered a worthless piece of shit, I've pretty much had it. If Leica can come out with their Digilux 2 with an exceptionally fine Leica quality lens, that's enough for me. To hell with bells and whistles, it's the quality of the picture that counts. If I bought one, I would most likely keep it. If they develop a digital back for my old R6.2 at a resonable price, that would be even better, -and I'm not talking about the $14,000 digital back Kodak makes for the Hasselblad.
