Zoom-in Online

Technology in photography has been advancing incredibly fast in the last few years, to the point where even low end cheap cameras aren't all that bad, when it comes down to it. In other words, digital photography and videography is now available in decent quality to anyone who wants it.

I purchased my first HD videocamera for under $150 in 2008. It's not very advanced, but it's HD and looks totally awesome. My wife got the 5D mk II, which blows mine out of the water, yet it's still affordable. Especially considering how much she would have had to pay for a similar DSLR and HD videocamera just a year earlier.

So, with all of this, I'll be looking forward to 2009, if nothing else, then just to see what the World ends up using all these new tools for.

Happy 2009 to all you photographers and film makers out there.
