I am so sick of seeing camera manufacturers stripping away important features in newer cameras with the excuse of calling them "fun and more film like". The bitter truth is them trying to minimize production cost and maximizing profit, by removing hardware and crippling the camera, while still selling them at exorbitant prices. If we are seriously considering taking away features and make the camera "more fun", let's go to the far extreme - I am experimenting with the Olympus Air as a standalone shooting camera, with only a singular shutter button. Without the aid of viewfinder or LCD screen to compose a shot, without the ability to adjust camera settings, all I could do was just press the shutter button after aiming the camera blindly at my subject, this proved to be quite an interesting session. I got some really cool shots too! I did a video to show you how I captured those shots (no cheating) here.
