     Nod.  It has interested me how it is assumed that "new" technology will 
always replace "old" technology.  Digital or film, stitching or swing lens, 
most processes will have strengths and weaknesses that can be exploited or 
avoided by the photographer.  People still use pencils and paints to do 
wonderful things although they could probably do something very similar with 
a computer.
