Something Wicked This Way Comes

Once again a FAM student asked me: What camera should I buy? In 98% of the cases, none. Is your camera broken? Do you need to sell pictures taken in dim light (good lenses are often the answer to that one, not the camera)? Do you need to exhibit a picture in ridiculous sizes (in which case film might be a better option)?

Learn to use a(ny) camera in manual mode, then learn to use YOUR camera [I still don't know (nor care) about many functions on mine], learn about composition, and then maybe your camera will start to really be an issue between your vision and your print.

In any case, an ode to ye ole' faithful, used this week.
