> The short of it is that there’s no money in photography

Oh dear...

I'd better go tell all the gear manufacturers, especially the higher-end kit like PhaseOne cameras and the Profoto flashes. Guess I should also tell the pro departments of Canon and Nikon they no longer have a job either.

There's TONS of money washing around photography.

From the wedding and sports photographers, to the paparazzi to the household-name fashion / landscape /architectural photographers.

There's then all the semi-pros and the amateurs with deep pockets.

Most of them will spend more money on insurance ALONE than the $295 asking price of DaVinci Resolve - Photo.

Hell, most of them will already have an Adobe subscription that they won't be cancelling any time soon. :)
