This has been discussed around here in the past and like it or not, I'm pretty certain it's the future - which has arrived. Some had speculated leica (with their camera experience) would be the first to pull it off but it looks like Swaro is diving-in headfirst.
It's funny... right now it has ZERO appeal to me. But I remember when I was still clinging to my film cameras and looking back, there's NO WAY i'd go back now that I'm using mirrorless 61MP and incredible software, stabilization, subject recognition, etc. I'm still nostalgic for the smell of darkroom chemicals and until very recently had held on to my 1935 vintage Leica RF camera, but realistically... I've moved on.
Will I be giving up my Retrovids in a couple of years? Dunno...
