The NEW ONES will come with probes that plug into my neuro-optics implant socket, behind my right ear, activating my aesthetic receptors, triggering my shutter finger, all in the blink of an eye! :-) I am learning to "see a moment" better, and you're right, of course: What matters to me is the image captured. What matters to other folk....well, that's for them to decide. And, since I tend to fuss with the "why" of things, I am enjoying the process of learning to see with an RF viewfinder, after being conditioned by my SLR viewfinders.
