A person with true photography in heart will care how well the picture he produced. Model and brand only mean speed, conveinences and personal preferences. If the gear he bring is limited or missing 1 len, he will try to shoot at his best or work with it's limitation to take advantage to produce.
Also, probably he doesn't have so much time arguing abt gear/format or interested to teach people because even he is right, most of the time he will meet many that talk alot but never about to produce and yet think they are right or good.
That is why even great Jesus, people spited on him, laugh at him and say he is mad etc. In this world, there will also people who disagree with you and choose the opposite way no matter what is the fact.
Not surprise to say that most people are technology greek or when they have cash, they would think of buying a new toy will really help them to take good photograph. With the modern technology, it is not difficult to produce technological good picture. Good photography is another different thing. Most are not even confident to use a fully mechanical camera of any brand other then what they are comfortable with and something they know how to operate. Otherwise, all camera are the same.
People talking about buying ultrasharp len and yet shoot handheld beyond the focal length rule, how can it be sharp in the first place? I hope you all know what is the focal length rule. There are people who laugh at me saying he can handheld 4 seconds to shoot night scene and I can't. Haha, I really cannot and I do not think they can either
Then I hear comment about amateur versus professional film. All films change color balance as they age. Amatur film is marketed with the asumption that it won't be exposed and processed promptly after it is purchased. Consequently, amatuer, or consumer, film is released onto the market quite early in its color life.
Professional films are meant to be exposed and processed quickly. This is why they're marketed at their optimum color balance.
All photographers have their own preferences when it comes to color renditions, grain, and sharpness of individual films. How do you know tell the recorded on Velvia or Provia is the correct yellow? I'm not refering to its color quality here. No one film is perfectly suited for all subjetcs, in all lighting conditions.
Consider the following example. You're shooting for a major client whose product has a certain identifianle color, such as the yellow of Kodak's film boxes. You would want to make sure that the film you used would be consistent in color rendition from roll to roll. But suppose you're shooting a nature photograph. What exactly is the correct color of a cherry tree or of a sunset?
Maybe I might spur up some heat, but then nothing to feel heat about, just go shoot more and ask what have you produce today with your camera gear. Are they better and better each time and not with mouth.
Relax pal, shoot more.
