Yesterday I saw a 10-year-and-3-month necropost on a photography forum. It was attached to a thread about Sony digital camera xxxx [vintage 2001]. The question? "How does it compare to Sony yyyy [vintage 2011]?"

Well, now I'm curious... how did they compare? Has digital imaging improved in the last 10 years (and three months)?
