Russell Kirsch, the man who really is the father* of digital photography when he invented the world's first digital image scanner in 1957 has just died. It seems that he later regretted making the pixels square, as this article at DPReview explains.

* Maybe more correctly grandfather if Steven Sasson is considered the father of digital photography.
