To date, digital is where the cutting edge is. Everything modern is often electronic in some way, using digital technology. I was wondering what nostalgia would be like in the days when digital has become a relic of the past, and this is how it could be:
You know, I long for the days when digital photography was in vogue. I mean, nowadays, the bio-uplink images can be so true to life and be exactly like looking through someone else's eyes, but the images lack that unnatural punch, that oversaturation that the old digital cameras could make. I like the feel of the shutter button, the sheer detail in the images back then. Of course, nowadays everyone's into the modern stuff that's so much easier to share with others, without having to go through a cumbersome computer. It's such a pity, because they could've improved digital into subatomic proportions and aren't limited by retina upgrades.
Things are gone now, like the experiencing of loading and unloading memory cards, taking care not to crack them or lose them, then taking the trouble to power up the ancient computers of the early 2000's and hope that the buggy program would actually work. Heck, bio-uplink imagery nowadays just does not have the personal feel that old digital had. So nowadays, I occasionally pick up a digital body to take those timeless shots that nobody else ever makes nowadays.
