This is just one of countless examples in the wildlife/action photography genre, that I focus on. But I'm sure there are many other genres that could benefit from this as well.
If this forum believes that flipping through 60 frames of video footage to pluck an image you like can be called photography, then we don't have much in common to talk about. I am wondering though, suppose Sony adds a "beaver mode" where a trained AI will automatically press the shutter for you, will you continue chasing beavers?
There are people who thought 10 frames per second too fast, 5 frames per second too fast… Not real photography.
We could go back to the view cameras, definitely one frame at a time.
That’s the only REAL PHOTOGRAPHY.
(but then people thought even *that* was too fast…painting is really where it’s at…).
But then they started cheating with the acrylics instead of real oil paints…
