What you said

‘I selected the “Impossible to predict” option, but if I had to make up my own answer I’d go for the possibilit­y of retinal implants that allow photograph­ers to take a capture of whatever they’re looking at, with the ability to edit the image by simply thinking about how they wish it to look. My vision of the future does, however, still include a number of people who maintain that analogue is best!’ ‘Optical and electronic imaging and recording will still have a place in family, hobby and profession­al life.’ ‘I do not expect there to be the same distinctio­n between still images and video as there is today. The link between image recording and other forms of communicat­ion will most likely be refined still further, probably not by becoming a single device but by sharing a linking technology.’ Join the debate on the AP forum
