After more than a decade of growth fuelled by the digital
revolution, the camera manufacturers are now in decline. The market is now saturated, people are only
renewing what they have, and manufacturers really haven't offered anything
truly innovative to the average consumer.
Sure, some cool stuff, like the A7/A7r, has come out that appeals to enthusiasts, but nothing
revolutionary for the 'man on the street'.
Manufacturers also failed to see the smart phone revolution,
which has stolen most of the compact camera business, and even now none of the
traditional manufacturer offers (with the exception of Sony) offers a phone
with a camera in it, or a partnership with a phone manufacturer.
What I am looking for is something to change my
photographical life, not just a new lens or body, but something indispensible
that doesn't leave my side. Not sure what
that is yet, but I'll know it when I see it, and I doubt it will come from
Canon, Nikon or Fuji.
