That's absolutely incorrect.  So, it just happens by magic?

Not necessarily.

I have no idea what you're trying to say there, but here is what you said:

"Frank, there is a very large difference between a digital camera body
and a high quality mechanical camera body, the digital camera is a
group of electric circuits  made by machines, the high quality
mechanical camera is direct human work, it requires craftsmanship, the
mechanical camera has something that the digital camera never had, has
or will have, a human heart."

and what I responded to.  You said that mechanical cameras require
craftsmanship, and digital camera do not.  That is entirely false.  And the
comment about a human heart, though reasonably esoteric, in comparison
between the two, is also entirely false.  Again, you really don't understand
what goes into making a digital camera "work".  If you did, you would
understand that there is FAR more "craftsmanship" and "human heart" that
goes into them than have gone into any film camera.  Ever.

I have degrees and am a professional in both mechanical engineering, and
electrical engineering.  I've designed quite a bit of both.  I intimately
understand the two.  I know what each takes.  I have a machine shop.  I have
an electronics lab.  I do this stuff day in and day out.

Regards,

Austin
