People who start a photography curriculum in 2021 were born in 2002 / 2003. I'd say early adopters were users of 1992-1994 Kodak digital cameras - by 2002, both Nikon and Canon already had 6.something megapixels reflex if I'm not mistaken.
- wpietri 5y agoSorry, I'm still not following. If 2002 is your marker for the beginning of the death of film, and if people born then are starting a photography curriculum in 2021, how could they be "most of the people using digital cameras today"?
- jcelerier 5y agoI thought that the median age in the world was around 20 but it's actually ~30. Though I doubt a lot of 30 years old today ever had exposure (heh) to a traditional film workflow.
- wpietri 5y agoAh, got it. We might also want to look specifically at the market for digital cameras. The median age in US and Europe is more like 40; Japan is 48. And the median age of people using digital cameras is surely higher than the population median.
