To me, the most interesting quote from a Carl Zeiss marketing manager was "In particular we are convinced that today's best analogue imaging systems are clearly superior to their digital counterparts in terms of image quality" Twenty questions about Zeiss ZF/ZS: "Shortly after the announcement earlier this month by Carl Zeiss of new Nikon F-mount ZF and screw-mount ZS lens lines, we sent a series of questions to Kornelius J. Mueller, Marketing Manager in the German company's Camera Lens Division. In his response, Mueller describes how ZF lenses will operate on a Nikon camera, acknowledges the desire among Canon shooters especially for crispy-sharp wide angles, discusses the decision to contract Cosina in Japan to manufacture ZF/ZS lenses and more."

David Pogue: Pixel Counting Joins Film in Obsolete Bin: "With the collapse of the film camera market and the end of the megapixel race, there are big changes in the photographic air." (Via New York Times: Technology.) 7:09:37 AM
