"The important decisions in photography, digital or otherwise, are those concerned with the image itself; the reasons for taking it, the way it looks.
The technology, of course, is vital, but the best it can do is to help realize ideas and perception. Photographers have always had a complex and shifting relationship with their equipment. In part there is the fascination with the new, with gadgets, with bright, shiny toys. At the same time there is, at last among those who are reasonably self-confident, a belief that their innate ability overrides the mere mechanics of cameras. We need the equipment and yet are cautious, sometimes even dismissive about it.
One ot the things that is clearly needed for succesful photogaphy is a proper balance in this conflict."
