The ability to transmit photos instantly will lead to a beat-the-clock wire service mentality. Because everyone is shooting digital, the pace at which we’re expected to turn things around is so great that I think it can hurt our journalism. Photographers are spending a lot of time dealing with the transmission process instead of telling stories.

I expects a backlash against rapid-fire surface coverage by television or other media and a demand for in-depth photo essays that stand the test of time. Great storytelling requires time -- time to understand what’s going on, time to spend with your subject, not at the laptop transmitting but really making great pictures.
