Its from the people who brought you the snuggie! Im at a loss for words right now.
Having grown up in the age of 35mm cameras, digital is so much better. You had to pay $ for film and then pay $ to get them developed. What if you accidentally took a bad picture, too bad you have to pay to get it developed. What if you want to see your pictures in an instant. Unless you have a polaroid, it was never possible until digital.
This is so hilarious I thought it was a parody, but it seems all too real. What are they going to try and sell next, rotary telephones and transistor radios?

I just brainpalmed. I did laugh at the guy who would cheesily smile and hold up the camera and snap a picture randomly, and when they showed the 'big happy family' looking through the prints, one lady kept dropping one

Course digital cameras aren't now. And you don't have to be a computer wizard.
The thing is, digital cameras arent really that hard today as you mentioned. They have come a long ways. They are pretty much instant on/off now, screens are much larger, pictures are taken much quicker.
I have a grandparent who doesn't even own a computer and yet they have a digital camera. You can just take your memory card to pretty much any place that used to develop film, and look at your pictures there and get them printed on 3x5s. And they have a digital photo frame where they can simply put the sd card from their camera in and "see" their pictures on a larger screen.
I just find it funny that this commercial sells an obsolete technology with absolutely no changes whatsoever to update it, yet they make it seem like a new product.
