Homeless BS: Photography (61* d) RE: BS: Photography 20 Feb 06

I hate to sound like a wet blanket, but to me claiming you're a good photographer because you got a fancy camera seems about on par with saying you're a good musician just because bought got a $10,000 guitar. I know guys who enter contests with prints made from cameras that cost no more than $4. Four dollars. A good photographer can get a beautiful shot from any camera that is handed to them, as JohninKansas alluded to above.

Unless you are going larger than 8x10, 2 megapixels is plenty. Knowledge of the effects of lens focal length is more important than having a big zoom.

Since people have mentioned wanting to get better zooms, does anyone understand the difference between optical zoon and digital zoom?
