Digital might be obliterating film in the hearts of enthusiasts (and consumers), but it seems to be lagging behind somewhat when it comes to visual representations of cameras in the popular mind. This is the current cover of GenLux, billed as "The only luxury fashion and beauty magazine created expressly for today's affluent Southern California woman."

Really? So affluent Southern California women these days are making cool snaps with Canonets?

Not that I disapprove.

It's true, there's no glamor in shooting with a Canon Point & Shoot in today's media. In TV shows and movies, even if you shoot with an SLR, you're either a perv, or CSI. If I remember correctly, in Stepmom, Julia Roberts shoots with a Leica too.

The only thing today's media finds as sexy as vintage rangefinders are iPhone photos. *If and only if* they're twittered.
