would yoube suprised to here the top guys used the top dark rooms guys because they got 'better' photo's... yes they were meddledwith with better chemicals etc.
your auot;s arnt quite the best eexposures, ok they look pritty good, particularly om the compacts, but, when you see a proper exsposure you'll see what i mean.
the after effects on a pc arnt as easy as the adverts show, ok tidle the levals just slide up this and that but again, when you actualy see a good after effect, you'll be looking at 6 month or more before you see what i'm, on about.
all the compoinents that make up an image, including the psycology, are still there,, again auto focus on full auto is actualy sh!te compaired to a properly composed image..
take the canon or nilon top of the range cams, theyre 1.3x crop factor...and NOT actualy 'full frame'. this basically means the aspect of size to phot physical size can never quite equol the old cameras, once again unless your were learned and well exsperienced in the old cameras you'd not know that either..the list goes on.
end of the day your getting them in focus basically and esclaiming woooo hows that for a good image! if you did know you'd sat hmm yeh nice focus.
basically the digital stuff lacks the dynamic lighting range, the processing is just an exstension of what you can get wih the digital. its correcting a poo bit of kit basically.
next..you buy a dslr, it has 100 200 400 800 etc to choose from, the pic an apature and its gives you the auto shutter speed or vice verser...its more than adequate as 'in focous shot' but unless you actualy know the idial lighting, the ideal settings including iso you cant even get close to a perfic pic even after a load of phottoshop on top of it.
end of the day the average person dunt know a good un from a bad un amd honestly beleive it only matters what they like..bit selfish like and totaly newbie. my favourate ever fraise that comes up ohhhh so often is ''i cant his face!!'' that was said at what i could only discribe as a peice of art in forograghy, but all the old boy wanted was to see the kids face..any snap shop on any fone would have dun him.. du dahhh...
next is, i know! stick a BREST on it..it'll sell, see their moof and its dirty or a porno...yawn, total ignorence basicaly.
heres the real kicker, the corps are selling the newbies and the pleasently ignorent a little false eago feed, nothing more nothing less
yet, theyre all the first to shpout any one or anything down that even dares tell them the truth.
so why bother?
personal acheavement maybe? ooooooo shudders we cant have that now can we lol.
80 percent of the debates about the camera kit is by nonowners or non profesionals and as such a mere apinion about some ones personal world bubble. its hot air.
auto's.. without a 500 quid meter and 5 year exsperience you wouldnt know waht iso range you were in.
heres the prosess, switch off auto and lets do it proper, so an apature is selected to get a nice moody narrow infocus up close shot, theyre moving so they stick a shutter speen and hey presto some image comes out, a quick photoshop tp correct it and oooo looks ace dunnit?
it does untill a camera was used correcly, then its erghhhh have you seen what we used to think looked good..
when your face to face with a gob shu-ite in any subject its anoying isnt it, especialy when they start the speil of bull and side tracking to sound like they know lol..
bandying to ..consumer damnd, that is controlled by the seller and backed up a 100 persent by the fish biting on the worms they offer... verses actualy knowing learning or finding out.
the day is..pc programs, the truth is it is better in a lot ways, but..its no where near in other ways.
and making a lotta money to. auto focus is ok to a point, then you have to go to manual, like wise with the setting, the camera 'hole' changes the focus depth, how good it looks and the effect, where you put it depends on an idia or an image from your mind the goes right through to the end product, that now includes options on your pc..then you take it..and hopefully end up with what you though.
same as it always was has and will be no matter what the medium is..a cave wall, a canvas, a wall a camera, sinny cam a pc image..pen pencil laser fiahing rod car lollol..yeh thats right 'your art, your knack your skill'...
or click auto ooo it in focus dead good i am i am dead good hey you im dead good i am i am im dead good...yawn.
stick the flash on an dooooo it all in focus...yawn lol.(now move that flash about, auto or camera syncs just make easier to acheive a basic better standard, when you can use it the art of flash then begins..).
go on, can you correctly size an image to fit a screen in a different resolusion in a different color system? or determin at what size you can print it? the whole dark room stuff on a pc, hoe easy is that? yeh go do it lol sudenly it is when you can do it,, and a night mare of red herrings when you cant wher as before you ent the film off and they did all for you.
] Has the skill been taken out of photography by Digital Cameras and Photoshop type computer software?
