Why have cameras and lenses become so expensive?

I shoot mostly around the house (kids), and the Sony FTP transfer feature is a godsend. Images get uploaded to my NAS over my wifi as I’m shooting, and subsequently filed away under dated folders and synced to Photostructure and NextCloud by a small shell script using inotifywait.

"FTP" - very convenient and all. Just one thing: to me looks like when Inet dropped FTP becouse unsecure and too complicated to configure LOL camera industry instanlty picked it up... So, are camera's manufacturers totally dumb or FTP was too good for plain internet users ? And FTPS or FTPTLS idea was too hard to use ? But monstrosity like HTTP+many-many-addons is OK ?

Well, it’s on my own private network so I’m not as concerned. I don’t expose my NAS to the public.

Neat! Are you using `photostructure sync $DIR` to import the new directories after they're copied over?

Yes, that’s right. I sync any directory which has files moved into it.
