Slightly off-topic. In audio electronics, there is a very expensive market nowadays for vintage hardware, like audio preamps, compressors and such. Due to their imperfection the sound is often considered as more natural. Combined with perfect high-end digital equipment this indeed can lead to great technical productions. I wonder, if there will be the same for video in the future?
I really appreciate the engineers marvel of those dedicated circuits. On the other the modern integrated circuits are a marvel in it's own.
