(interchangeable lens cameras) or EVIL (electronic view-
finder interchangeable lens cameras). Cameras in this mir-
rorless grouping are the Fuji X-Pro 1, the Sony alpha and
NEX family of cameras, the Nikon J1/Vi cameras, the just
announced Canon EOS M cameras, the micro four-thirds
(mFT) line of cameras such as the Olympus OM-D5 and
Panasonic GX1, and of course the entirely different Ricoh
line of interchangeable lens AND sensor cameras.
In addition to those camera groupings another new collec-
tion of cameras has appeared, the large sensor fixed lens
cameras such as the Canon G1 X and the Sony RX 100
along with the Fujifilm X10 and X100. I can see some ques-
tions arising about what constitutes a large sensor. To my
way of thinking, sensors in the size range of 1/1.7 and larger
meet that criterion, but just barely. But wait, the camera
companies are also introducing more mid- to high-end point
and shoot cameras such as the Panasonic FZ200, Pentax X5,
Canon SD500, Nikon P7700, and Fuji SL300.
But if you look, you will see relatively little effort or money
being spent on the inexpensive line of cameras, those retail-
ing for $200 or less. What you are seeing is product renam-
ing with a change in camera color but very little in the way
of any new features. What also appears to be happening
here is that as the new models appear the older models are
marked down substantially. As an example, Olympus Pen
LP-2 was $550 or more. It can now be had for about $300
while the even older version, the LP1 is still around and
going for a bit under $300 and those are prices with the kit
lens. The Fuji S4500 came out at about $300, but today it
can be bought for under $200 and it came out in January of
this year.
The economic downturn of the last few years certainly has
played a part in the changing face of digital photography,
making it less lucrative to introduce middling to low cost
cameras and to focus on the mid to upper range of cameras
with special features, such as better video, longer zoom
ranges, great low light and high ISO ability. You will also
be seeing a move away from the traditional CCD sensor to
the CMOS and BSI-CMOS type sensor since these are far
better suited to video and low light photography.
One other very bad thing is happening and that is the in-
crease in camera complexity. I hear it almost every week
from my students, “I can’t understand the manual (if there is
even one included), there is no index or the index is vastly
incomplete, the booklet uses abbreviations without ever
defining them, they seem to assume I know something when
I do not, they don’t explain a feature or how to use that fea-
ture.” I have long maintained that the instructions are writ-
ten by people whose native language is NOT English and
may not even be photographers.
This is a most interesting period in photography. Image
quality and the ability to use high ISO settings or shoot in
dim light has never been better. Cameras, at least the mid to
high price cameras, have more features and generally per-
form much better. The next five years will see very signifi-
cant changes in the photographic landscape, stick around,
you may even like what you see.

invited to seek accreditation, businesses must meet tough
BBB standards and agree to follow the highest principles of
business ethics and voluntary self-regulations.
