Man those are spot on... lets see, the length of your lens is directly proportional to the lenth of your... no, that's not right... I got it, every few months the manufacturers come out with a new camera that you gotta have, but rarely need...

I'd like to add to #15. I'd say the quality of the photos doesn't grow as fast as linearly with the # of actuations, its much slower, more like logarithmically. That is, you don't get photos twice the quality after taking twice as many pictures, its more like you get twice the quality by taking 10 times as many pictures, then four times the quality by taking 100 times as many pictures...etc.

Cameras make pictures to the same degree that word processors write novels.

I like the second set better. Awesome, just awesome. The funny thing is I could see myself telling my kids as I'm counting, 1,1.2,1.4,1.8.... lol

Ok, the second one was funny. I didn't have anything nice to say about the first one though... just kind of boring.

"Photography has not changed since its origin except in its technical aspects, which for me are not important." - Henri Cartier-Bresson
"There are no rules for good photographs, there are only good photographs." - Ansel Adams "The word 'art' is very slippery. It really has no importance in relation to one's work. I work for the pleasure, for the pleasure of the work, and everything else is a matter for the critics." - Manuel Alvarez Bravo "The mystery isn't in the technique, it's in each of us." - Harry Callahan "If I knew how to take a good photograph, I'd do it every time." - Robert Doisneau "Light makes photography. Embrace light. Admire it. Love it. But above all, know light. Know it for all you are worth, and you will know the key to photography." - George Eastman
