In early 2000 a lot of photographers were saying that digital photography is not "real", it doesn't have a "soul", it should not be allowed in photo contests and it's just worthless in general.

To be fair, early-2000s digital cameras were ... not great. 4 megapixels if you're lucky (not that megapixels are the only thing that matters, but they do matter, up to at least 20 megapixels).

Hence my surprise that Ansel anticipated it with open arms 40 years ago.

Artists had been saying that photographs had no soul for almost 100 years.
