Yahoo at one time was the king of search engines, and then as time got along it failed to keep up, the home page became too cluttered and slowly it lost it’s position which it is still trying to grab. In came Google with it’s simplistic and minimalistic search engine home page and it gained popularity at an alarming rate. Ok, the popularity had a lot to do with the search results, however the user interface and the features being offered and the way the were being offered had a large part to play in it.
Google can be a simple search engine and it can be a lot more if you want it to. My concern with cameras is the same. I am afraid that they are going down the line of ‘feature overload‘ to capture market share. Digital SLR technology is at a point where we can call it stable, and there are no major leaps in the near future in terms of technological advancement, hence the manufcturers are turning to these extra features to grab market share, I just hope that they don’t turn into Yahoo.
