What old and cheap digital cameras and smartphones can do these days simply seems to be unbelievable when compared to older, analog ways of taking photos.
I still remember the days of my youth, when dad and I discussed potential ways of processing images in our basement. How to handle unfriendly, yet needed chemicals, the red light for a dark-room, etc. It all seemed a mighty challenge. - My first camera was a Voigtländer Bessamatic, only soon to be replaced by a Nikon F-801, both sponsored by dad.
Shortly after this, the digital revolution began, and it now keeps taking a hold of us all...
Sure was. Not tryin' to beat ya. But those fold-out smartphones, back in their day always reminded me of "Kirk here.."
I even answered some incoming calls like that, usually confusing the caller. - It was a funny thing to do at the time..

I remember Dick Tracy and his wristwatch phone.
That could never happen.
