Once upon a time it seems just about everyone used a tripod. Certainly, if you were a serious photographer you wouldn't be seen dead without a good tripod.
So what's happened? My admittedly limited observations suggest use of the tripod has diminished considerably, at least amongst amateur photographers. Why? I don't know, but suspect it has something to do with photography being so easy these days. Autofocus, auto exposure etc. have all made the production of acceptable pictures such a quick and easy event that I believe many are lulled into a false sense of photo-quality security.
