I'm a photojournalist covering the Republican National Convention in San Diego, and I'm happy to report that, for the photographers, there is nary a 'Doze machine in sight. In the Associated Press work space most of the AP member photographers are using Powerbook 500 series with Nikon Supercoolscans, there are a few digital cameras and some 180c's and even some 165c's. Haven't seen any 5300's yet. For their part, AP staff photographers are using all digital cameras. The PC cards are being downloaded straight into PowerPC boxes. AP has digital cameras covering the podium giving live feeds to a Mac under the camera platform in the middle of the convention center and going straight out to member papers from there. United Press International is using film. The photoshop work is being done on PowerMac 7500's and sent to Washington where they are transmitted to UPI subscribers. A few of us are even Newtons for caption notes!
