Claire says:
7D is a sure fire winner for anyone looking for 1.6x crop body.
Scott says:
not really.
Claire says:
why...
Scott says:
buying the best cropped sensor with all the bells and whisles does not mean its a good camera or that it will produce good pics.
Claire says:
why
all the mags seem to say its a brilliant cam
Scott says:
cause its not the camera or the tech or the bells and whistles in the camera that makes a good image.
Claire says:
so if i had a 7d, 5d 1d, you could take better pics with a 400 than i could with the above in my hands...
Scott says:
yup
Claire says:
buts its all about learning... im a better phone engineer than you.... why... because i have been doing it longer.... no doubt you could do the same job if shown the right way, with some experiance
Scott says:
yeah
but are we talking about experiance or what makes a good picture
i agree it is experiance, technicle knowlegde but most of all, you need a eye. if you dont have the eye then its points less.
its like me or you trying to teach sarah tech or engineering stuff. she would never getting it.
Claire says:
its experiance that makes a good pic... at the moment you vs i you win, i walk up, snap done.... you can train a monkey to do anything... so after some training, you'd pic it up
Scott says:
no, not really.
its not all about the training.
you can train a chimp to take pics but will they take good pics
proberly not. cause they wont have the heart or the want to take a good pic or the eye for a good image.
Claire says:
so what your saying is, i dont have the eye or the heart for taking pics...
Scott says:
no
not talking bout you
just talking in general.
Claire says:
but...
Claire says:
so if i had a 7d, 5d 1d, you could take better pics with a 400 than i could with the above in my hands...
Scott says:
yeah.
its the person and the lens.
you talked about the camera but not the lens.
the pics i've seen that you taken. come across more as snaps.
if you took your time and planned you pics i think you'd produce some good pics.
even in auto mode.
Claire says:
the problem is, when i go out, claire nagggggs about wanting the cam as she has seen something that she wants to take pics of
so its a battle for the cam
so i end up going click and letting her have it
Scott says:
get her a compact.
or dont go out with her
leave her at home.
Claire says:
its nice to have some company
Scott says:
dont go on your own.
gareth, me, chris, neil.
neil is all ways looking for someone to go out with and take pics.
or even keith.
he's up for some late night photos
Claire says:
i never get invited!
Scott says:
I can't speak for them. guess they never thought about it.
drop em a PM on facebook to let them know that your up for going out next time.
Claire says:
yeah will do
as for claire, she gonna have a 400
Scott says:
and what you going to get
Claire says:
a 7
Scott says:
why
Claire says:
its nice!
Scott says:
lol
D3x is nice so is a 1D but people dont go out and randomly spend over 1k on a camera cause its "nice"
Claire says:

Claire says:
