profit taking on SNDK after a great run of late. stock down today. i bot a small tad on some news out today. and as for film makers the skies look very gray. the memory cards are the "film" for digicams. more and more space is needed and the cameras improve with resolution. IBM also making micro drives. not sure how well they are selling compared to flask cards, but still digital photography erodes the film cameras the demand for memory cards will go up in sync. What Is In Store For 2004 A Collective Look Into The Photo Imaging Crystal Ball The Shutterbug Editors, December, 2003 Digital SLRs Heat Up:The digital SLR market is going to explode. With the recent introduction of the Canon Digital Rebel model the $1000 price point has been broken and every manufacturer has to reassess if they’re going to get in on that game. Given that the Digital Rebel does not meet everyone’s needs, there will still be room for D-SLRs with more pro-oriented features, like Nikon’s D2H WiFi model. But companies such as Nikon, Pentax, Fuji, Minolta, Sigma et al might well feel the need to respond, and that should make for interesting times ahead. How does the D-SLR impact what happens in this industry? When we talk with companies who make accessories—from independent lens makers to those who supply memory cards and even tripod and bag manufacturers—they all say that this is the breakthrough that they’ve been waiting for. Film SLR sales have been dropping steady and they have not provided the big push that the digital SLR can deliver. That means we’ll all see a whole new flock of the above-named items specifically geared to what everyone thinks will be an overwhelming migration into digital SLR territory. All I can say is okay; now that we’ve broken the $1000 barrier why not aim for $500 next? It might not happen right away, but with 2004 being a photokina year—the worldwide show in Germany in the fall—we are bound to see major changes in both price and feature value sets for this product category.
