Something someone said today....

[robertwsimpson]

Beginning photographers worry about camera bodies
Intermediate photographers worry about camera lenses
Advanced photographers worry about light



Kinda rings true...

What if you worry about all three simultaneously?

 

[robertwsimpson]

I think your brain explodes.

you worry too much

Ah, so that explains my stress level lately! I thought it was just having four very energetic little kids running about all the time

Actually I think #3 is far more important. You can have the best camera and lenses on the planet, but if you have no light? You'll have nothing worth shooting. I

I wouldn't consider myself advanced, but lighting seems to be what I'm always worried about, because I can never seem to get it right.

 

[robertwsimpson]

You've already got a good body though.

that sounded dirty.:blushing:

hey, at least you don't blame it on your equipment.

Photography is like cycling, it's 95% person and 5% gear, but if you have enough money . . . . . .

I like that, thats a funny true statment.
kinda like:
when your 2yo you worry about messing yourself
when your 22yo you worry about having friends
when your 42yo you worry about makeing money
when your 62yo you worry about having friends
when your 82yo you worry about messing yourself
life is a tuff circle!

It's fun to have nice gear, but I wouldn't blame any of my really good pictures on the gear... it's a combination of my modest skill and some luck most of the time.

The only thing I'll say about that is that even the best photographer can't always capture his or her vision if the equipment just isn't there.

I worry about my D60 body. Here's why: in low light and at high iso, it produces far too much noise. When you do long exposures, you end up with a couple dozen hot pixels (especially blues and reds).

But I suppose that's really worrying about light, since with more light, it wouldn't be an issue.

this is why I always wear a crash helmet - should my mind expload at least it keeps most of it together in one place!
