When I was young, we had "unleaded" and regular gasoline.  At sometime
"regular" just disappears and we had unleaded.  Now, "regular" IS
"unleaded" and leaded gas doesn't exist -- and if it did, it was be
called "leaded", not "regular".  As times have changed, our names have
changed, too.

Digital SLRs became dSLRs and SLRs remained the same.  Meanwhile,
digital P&Ss just became P&Ss, not dP&Ss, without any troubled or
problem distiguishing the cameras.

Now the dSLRs are the primary type of SLRs, I wonder when/if they will
become SLRs and the "d" will be dropped.  When that happens, do we
called the old film cameras fSLRs?

So when/if do you think the name change will occur and dSLRs will just
be SLRs?  Or, do you think the mirror will disappear and they will
become something like SLCs (single lens cameras)?
