Records of family are wonderful things, but do you want your children and grandchildren to grow up exclusively thinking of you as some sort of glass-nosed robot who spends Christmas insistently clicking at them?<\/p>\n<p>And surely we\u2019ve all met iPad Gig Idiot, who spends his evenings ruining concerts for everyone by holding up a bright tablet screen to capture unwatchable footage (does he watch it later? No one knows).<\/p>\n<p>In truth, though, I find myself agreeing with the 52%. Although it can be a pain to be fiddling with settings while wonderful things unfold in front of you, having a record of them in the form of a great photograph makes it worth it.
