GoPro
Im totally with hating narcissistic tendencies of people the world over, but don't hate the tech, seen selfie sticks being used to take photos of snakes without disturbing them. What if people want to take the photos, but not share with anyone, but keep it for themselves.
And even if totally narcisstic, it's kind of cute to document every event with a selfie as a memory... little funny, little sad.
Now you are all so angry and excited about hating, that you have not considered the alternative. look at all the selfies, and imagine them without the people. So empty. Imagine pictures of adventure sports... mountain climbing, rafting, skydiving, without the people.
Now I like to photograph brick walls, cement walls, walls with paint peeling off them, dilapidated walls with creepers growing all over them. But Im desperate to find someone, anyone, to look and smile for the camera in front of these walls, because it adds context and a reference point. No one is going to look at pictures of walls, otherwise.
Oh also, the tactile feedback on the shutter button, as against a tap, feels like it gives more control, especially because you can control exposure and focus with a half click on that button itself, instead of tapping all around the screen to get what you want, which might change by the time you get to tapping the click button after adjusting the exposure and focus
