 Think twice before you delete
数码相机扼杀珍贵镜头
 One by one, they have created our memory of history — famous photos of the Civil War, Abraham Lincoln, Vietnam war and the mother and her child that captured the despair of the Great Depression.
"These are all pictures that are frozen in our memory and cannot be erased, even if we wanted to," says Els Rijper, curator of the Betteman photo archive.
But archivists still need find a way to save today's digital images as the visual legacy of the 21st century for generations to come.
After all, conventional photography is now a thing of the past. Last year, more digital cameras were sold than conventional cameras.
Remembering the digital age may not be so easy.
"It is more instant," Rijper says. "And you can delete instantly, as well."
Unlike conventional film, most digital photos are edited on the spot. Not every photo of an event is preserved.
A case in point may be a picture of Monica Lewinsky and Bill Clinton taken at a White House ceremony, apparently confirming she was more than just an intern.
"Most of the photographers who were there at the time considered that image was not valuable," Rijper says. "They didn't know what to do with it. They deleted it. It is a huge loss for everyone."
