I bought CS4 first before any higher end lenses, and I am glad, because it helped me NOT hate my cheap glass quite as much. HAHA. Even with the "L" glass, I still post process, so its not like if I started out by buying high end glass, I would not have needed photoshop. If anything I may have expected the expensive glass to do too much and not have a firm understanding of editing RAW files. But thats just my experience.

Then how come you aren't posting on any of mine?
:lmao:
Exactly this - And like Bus_Rider said: If the photographers skill is beyond my imput... Somtimes ill just say "Awesome photo" or whatever but they probably know that. If I think of somthing that I think might be of some help then ill comment. Most the time i judt dont know what to say! haha "There somthing wrong but I dont know what..." = not very helpful! lolWhat makes you decide to not comment on a C/C thread? Do you open it, look at the pictures and see nothing wrong? Do you open it and not find the pictures interesting? No time? For me sometimes it's not so much as I don't see anything wrong, but I don't know the correct way to fix it, so I'll come back to it later hoping someone who knows has posted.
Like I said, I'm curious.
I am taking c/c to mean critique and comment.
I will not comment for several reasons
1) When I think that the request for c/c is just a disguise for really wanting to show off what they consider a great photo. This is often substantiated when someone does suggest a deficiency and the original poster replies with some sort of "are you crazy blah blah" That is proof to me that they were just trying to show off what they think is great.
2) When very similar to 1) the person owns very expensive equipment and wants the world to know it. They post a relatively nice photo and then list the pedigree of all the equipment that went into getting the photo. As if knowing the name of the mega dollar tripod somehow is necessary for the critique.
3) The photo was posted by a bored person just trying to generate some interaction to pass the time.
BUT if I perceive that a beginner is genuinely struggling to grasp some concepts then I will critique. Or if an advanced person is seeking alternative crop ideas for example that the poster had not thought of previously. Things like that will cause me to offer a critique.
That pretty much sums it up for me. But I don't open every single thread, so I'm sure there's lots of interesting stuff I'm missing out on.What makes you decide to not comment on a C/C thread?.....
.......Do you open it and not find the pictures interesting?
Truthfully I think a lot of people comments when they first signed on and later on they slack off because the excitement is gone. I like to post comments on things I know or have opinion on but I wouldn't post stuff about how they should adjust their aperture, iso and etc because I don't even know myself. I feel that's how a lot of people are, they don't want to comment unless they're really good at it. I can only comment on the composition and picture itself, I'm new to this thing and don't want to say something I don't know anything about.
I have been writing up responses and then wondering if my opinions are even valid and deleting them.... and waiting for more experienced people to respond.
