The Camera Is the Film�Rethinking Digital Photography
"During the heyday of film cameras, the camera was the vehicle for transmitting the image to the film. You'd buy the best lens and camera combination you could, which tended to boil down to offerings from Leica, Nikon, and maybe Canon or Pentax. Others made good cameras, but the contrast you got with a Leica or Nikon lens was always superior. Other fabled lenses appeared on bigger cameras, and everyone wanted to own a Hasselblad too. But that's all academic in today's market. Things are different."
Dvorak has some interesting thoughts in this article. He surmises that eventually most photographers will have different cameras to leverage the strength of each. I'm curious if anyone is currently doing this. So, time for a poll.
