But I think how we go about taking photographs is an appropriate thing to discuss here. Photography was invented as a permanent way of recording what our eyes can see and all of our discussions about gear and technique revolve around taking photographs suitable for viewing at a later time that doesn't have an expiry date. That's why photo albums were invented and why we put so much effort into taking better pictures.

For all the attention given to the quality of smartphone cameras, taking a photograph with a cellphone isn't much different than writing something down on a napkin or on the back of your hand. (For me, that's the only reason I take pictures with my phone, because I can't draw and I'm too lazy to write) Even though Polaroid photos had a limited lifespan and you couldn't make reprints, their expiry date was far enough in the future that people didn't immediately throw all of them away. Typically, they went into a storage container of some sort to be forgotten and eventually thrown out, but there was still an expectation that if you wanted to, you could still retrieve one of them six months later.

Eleven years to change the model name, there is no excuse for that.:p In comparison, our complaints about Ricoh taking three years to release a new lens or camera body are unjustified.

But who wants inexpensive when you have already invested in an expensive tracking mount? No bragging rights for wrapping a bulky, very noticeable, hand warmer over your lens.

Lots of pictures of food in restaurants, too:) One day, smartphone pictures will only be available for a short time, then their bits will disintegrate into random noise and become lost for ever. The ultimate disposible camera, even the photographs aren't permanent.
