I disagree. Cellphone *connection* quality is far worse than any
Depression-era bus-station pay telephone. My Underwood typewriter never
crashed from a virus. And your phone bill didn't arrive in your mailbox
lost amid 10000 spam pieces. Advancing technology degrades quality in

regards.

I see your point but this has more to do with the (mis)USE of technology
than with technology per se...

  • Re: D2Xs versus D200 etc.
    ... The best example is probably the D100/70/50/40 using the same sensor design with changes perhaps to AA filter, ... Moving up to a D80/200 there is a hit on dynamic range & noise with more MP but IMO the newer technology can overcome much of that and more MP really does give more detail and less noise because the noise is smaller grained therefore less noticeable and the processing technology is more advanced in newer models. ... I'd guess the D2x is not that great for noise & dynamic range due to old technology, the main difference is in build quality and pro features, just like the D80 & D200 should be nearly identical image quality but the D200 has a more robust build with more features, knobs, buttons & options. ...
