Comment Closed Digital Cameras - Does Anyone Care? (Score 1) 506
The answer to the question is no. Nobody cares. When you buy a camera, you want to take photos. Preferably good quality ones.
If you want to do something neat with the image, you put it on your PC and fiddle with it. You don't need to fiddle with it inside the camera.
I know some people enjoy the challenge of hacking the firmware, but the camera companies aren't going to waste time and money opening up their specs so they can sell 3 more cameras to the people who care.
And besides, if you were a real hacker, you would take the damn thing apart and figure it out yourself.
