What I have seen in the past, and I believe it can be extrapolated vis a vis future developments, is endless improvements in both still film and digital technology, tapering off but never ending, continuing in tandem in incremental quality and convenience progressions. In short, there are no constraints upon performance. If you add to that scenario the increasing knowledge and competence of photographers, then there are no limits to photographic achievement technically and in esthetics. I doubt whether this is true to the same degree in any of the other arts. Bob
