It seems to me that rather than the manufacturers it is us that are "going against nature". Things are born, they prosper a while then die. It is us that are fiddling with Methusaleh's Minolta. It is us that won't let these old cameras "rest in pieces". :-) I'm delighted to see new models come out. It means old models just got economically in my price range. In the sixties, as I was growing up, I couldn't possibly have afforded a Spotmatic. I now have several...and a whole box of lenses! The cameras are still the same. I am still the same. Ok, we are both older but you know what I mean... Let's not begrudge the manufacturers for their newest whizbang--do everythang--plastic wonders. Let's thank them for making it possible for us to get cheap toys to take apart. Henry |
