Maybe .. just maybe. :dunno: Its possible
but they get paid peanuts ok? dun play play, later their stuff are classified as avant garde :bsmilie:But Monkey can only do business (Monkey business) and scratch it's friend's back :bsmilie:
Maybe .. just maybe. :dunno: Its possible. But i would say the chance of shooting a better photo with a manual camera is much slimmer.
it depends on who is behind that manual camera
And just because the camera is manual, does not mean that it is cheap.

I pity the fool who thinks he's not good enough to own good equipment...
And most of all, I pity the fool who doesn't know what is needed to get the job done...
once a while this kind of thread will appear over and over in CS.....
common, is there anything to argue here? 3 pages of post, and NOBODY will say Expensive equipment = good photo.....
Why do people start this kind of thread? Izzit because they see lousy photographers buy expensive gear which they cannot afford? Jealous or what?
People buy "expensive" cameras for their own reason. If they want to churn out bad photos using a 10k system, it is their choice.
What's so foolish about that?
There are people who thinks their skill level is so good, that they don't need expensive equipment to take great pictures... They claim to take great pictures even with lousy equipment, but because they are so good, they deserve the best equipment (not that they can't take good pictures with cheap equipment if you know what I mean).
Then... they bring their monster lenses to events, but their results are Kana Sai... Worse still, they think their pictures are so very nice.
"Expensive Equipment = Good photo?" is the same as "Cheap Equipment = Bad photo?"
One can use a cheap holga for that alternative effect he's looking for, or an expensive Hassy for the detailed rendition of the subject, both cases will yield equally impressive results, provided, the guy behind the camera knows what he's doing.
So there,...

Samuel L. Jackson fan :bsmilie:
Does Samuel L Jackson use that phrase a lot too?
It is usually linked with Mr T - who was famous first.
