I agree completely, but that is not the gist of
this thread. Someone -- Carlos? Eric? --
suggested that digital cameras were
machine-assembled while high-end film cameras
were assembled by hand. You then responded that
it took machines to design the innards of digital
cameras. I am merely pointing out that the
discussion was on production and not design.
I agree that any high-end camera today is made by CNC machinery.
