The only question is when you expect that improving the precision of a certain step is not worth the effort anymore – but you can never know because a higher precision may reveal new insights (which weren’t new if you knew about them). | |

The reasons why I use a device made for taking pictures are: 1) Taking pictures is still pretty close to what I am doing; I just don’t care about the limits of human vision. 2) There is no cheap device for my purpose that is better than a camera for taking pictures, possibly there even isn’t an expensive one. Remember that a lot of development effort went into making modern cameras the cheap and precise tools they are. | |
