what camera should I get?

6/06/2008

This is something I have wrestled with for nearly two years, and the only conclusion I have been able to arrive at, is that I am more confused than when I started my search.

so you’ve sat there looking at specs, making comparisons, reading reviews and other metal masturbations for TWO years because you wanted to buy the right thing. repeat after me. THE SPECS DON’T MATTER. THE CAMERA DOESN’T MATTER! THE LENS DOESN’T MATTER.

what matters is actually having a camera, any camera and using it. period. you guys really have to stop over thinking these things.

figure out what you can afford and buy it. get on with the day. go out and shoot instead of pining about f stop, shutter speed and mega pixels.

here’s another way to look at it… how many picture have you missed because you were sooooo concerned with specs that you didn’t have a camera. or worse, when the picture is in front of you will have chops to make the camera do what you want to do? personally, I think you won’t because you haven’t been practicing.
