I'm going to miss the review videos by Chris and Jordan. They're a lot more entertaining than the usual dry videos you see elsewhere.
My thoughts exactly. It's the camera you always carry and it's very, very capable. You can even shoot raw if you wish to get the best possible results. And yes, if only one could get more focal lengths apart from the standard wide angle one.

I used to paint back in the day. Mixed my own colors from the juices of fruits, vegetables, crushed rocks and vanquished foes.
But thankfully gave up all that nonsense when film photography was invented. Now I can happily make 36 portraits in less time than it takes those hipster painters to select a brush.
Painting? Don’t miss it.
The new cellphones have the normal wide angle, extra wide angle and telephoto.
After a brief search, I found that Chris and Jordan are moving to PetaPixel.

Mine has wide, ultrawide and macro. I'd trade the ultrawide and macro for a tele, with decent resolution.
All crazes die, which is great, because it clears the field for long term ruminators.
The iPhone 14 Pro includes a 2x tele lens.
And carrying flip phones and shooting film with point and shoot cameras. Oh, that's what hipsters do.That all crazes die is a good thing, otherwise we’d still have disco and guys wearing leisure suits.

If you include cell phones in this debate, there is no debate. Check out the video below (which charts annual sales starting in 1951) that kind of sticks a fork in it:
And with AI, who needs a camera?
Places like Amazon buy all sorts of companies only to then shut them down because they are not "core" business. It wasn't when you bought so...duh.
Oh, don't get me started on Amazon. I loathe Amazon, and not just because AWS is "the competition".Amazon also ruined Whole Foods. Just turned it into another supermarket. While it was expensive as the original Whole Foods, it had amazing delis, incredible selections of foods, and my old Venice location had a wine bar where they would also cook up whatever you bought from the meat or fish counters, they had so many small food stalls. It really was great.
Now it is just jammed w their own label pre-packaged stuff, and booze.
I'm going to go read this. And that's another thing I often lament as the Internet gets eaten up and reconstructed/deconstructed by larger and larger corporate interests - the tribal knowledge we old timers have built up over 40+ years is discarded, the remnants locked away in pay-per-view vaults and all the relationships and intangibles are just dropped like packets in a bitstorm.Mike Eckman had an interesting posting on his site today. He was lamenting the loss of historical data when web sites close down. This will likely be an unfortunate side effect of the dpreview site closing. Whether you liked the site, or not, there is/was a lot of useful historical information there, and it all could easily disappear in the blink of an eye.
