Carolly, I am happy also about emulation of real camera controls, per what is reasonable possible given the metaphor. Its a vote of confidence for the "deep tool making" philosophy. Even if/when 'the movies' go digital, the underlying physics and technique of capturing the light of the world and shaping it on a media pioneered 150 years ago remains relevant. With all due respect gareee I think and hope they are headed in the opposite direction of your wishlist...less CAM/Instamatic and more SLR/Panaflex. IMO this trend toward respect for the principles of photography -- old school photography -- deserves a feeling of thanks and appreciation to Curious Labs. Thanks for treating us like grownups! ::::: Opera :::::
