A digital imaging roundtable hosted by This Week In Consumer Electronics - the business newspaper best known by its acronym TWICE - makes for very interesting reading.
The roundtable, which is published on TWICE's website, features commentary from almost all the players in the world of digital SLRs, including: - Canon: Chuck Westfall
- Fujifilm: Ron Gzzola
- Kodak: Philip Scott
- Konica Minolta: Paul Zakrzewski
- Nikon: Bill Giordano
- Olympus: Stewart Muller
- Panasonic: Bert Desmond
- Pentax: B.J. Adams
Essentially, only Sigma (manufacturer of the SD10 DSLR) and Sony (which has announced future plans to participate in the SLR field) are absent from the list.
Topics discussed include the slow-down in growth of the digital camera market, consumer (and retailer) education, digital SLRs versus fixed-lens prosumer cameras, the impact of camera phones, the camera of the future, opportunities for monetizing images, plus the state of the market in general. If you're interested in digital imaging, and in particular if you're interested in higher-end cameras and digital SLRs, the roundtable offers some great insights into what's in store!
