Nobody is making bad cameras, you're just a bad photographer

Well, it's right, we've passed the sufficiency level at affordable price since a long time.

 

On a derived topic, there's a point that makes me think:

 

Quote:Do you think all of those war images would have anywhere near the same level of impact if there were no grain?

 

 
 

It's undoubtedly true, but I think that the story is more complex. Actually, first we had the great impact of those war images; they had grain; so grain has been associated to great impact. It's not that grain per se has an impact. BTW, given that we still have wars, I don't think that grain would be necessary today to deliver a great impact.

 

If we don't have great war images as in the past it's because the scenario has changed. At the time, war images were pushed. Today the perception of war is different.
