Currently speaking, I am very dismayed by the current world of photography. Nothing is really interesting. Even after perusing all the different cameras out there, they are all boring, not innovative.

What is the big issue here? It seems that all of these camera companies only work by analogy; what is drive to do is to take past designs and just iterate on them, rather than wiping the slate clean, and doing something totally brand new.

For example, why do modern day digital cameras still look like old film cameras?

Or better yet, let us consider car design. There is no really good reason why an electric car needs to look like an old gasoline car, considering there is no longer an engine either in the front or the back. This could allow some very interesting innovations. To design the front of an electric car simply as a “frunk“, seems boring.
