Hey gang! I'm totally confused on this calculus question and could use some help. I know that its an indeterminate power and requires use of l'Hopital's, but I'm stuck. The question is to find the limit of the following equation as x--> 0

y= (1-10x)^(1/x)

Thanks for your help!

So here's the first question that I'm asking on this site:

There are many talented and experienced photographers on this site who rightly argue time and again that it is the photographer and NOT the equipment that makes a compelling image. These people argue that someone with a creative mind and technical ability can make compelling images with the lowest quality of gear: even disposable cameras! In fact, for years photographers have found technically "limited" mediums such as Lomography as an asset to creativity.

However, I consistently see many of those making the argument that "its the photographer and not the gear" turn right around and make assertions that "real artists" only use film," or that film is a superior medium for serious photography. (All real testing, on the other hand, shows that both mediums have advantages and disadvantages in different situations).

How do those who make the both assertions reconcile the two?
