Comment on It’s The Camera, Not The Photographer??? by pauldingphotog

Thank you Robby for your comment:)! I think we are both on the same page….you need the “eye” or artistic abilities as well as the technical abilities. If you know how to shoot manual then you’ll know better how to control your camera and when you need to over ride any of the programmed modes. The issue comes in when photographers don’t know how to shoot manual & rely totally on the camera…I think we both agree that creates issues no matter how good your eye is:).

I’m so use to shooting manual & just have never used any of the programmed modes alot. I did try TV mode & programmed but to me it was just easier to shoot manually:). I’ll shoot Aperature priority sometimes in nice bright conditions. But that’s always the key…knowing when to use what:).

I hung onto film until 3 years ago now when I went digital….I was stubborn:). I still love film though too & still have my Olympus OM2. And I still love stepping into a darkroom:)! Hope to hear from you again:)

I agree and disagree alittle, I’ve seen pro photogs pictures look like crap, to me it’s that little sumthin!! that your born with, ask any “good” artist and they will tell you the same. They can be a pro, they can have pro equipment, it’s that little something extra that only artist, or athletes, you shoot from your heart, you play that sport with that extra push, drive, that makes you, you!! but even some people, thats not enough.

I shoot sports alot as well as weddings and Shooting on manual doesn’t make the diffrence in being a great photographer, I shoot on AP, SP all the time, I mean everyone should learn Manual, but you don’t have to shoot on it 24/7

The thing I tell people I teach is, think of a Fighter Pilot from the old days before Computers, he had to use what he was born with, the edge, skill, to survive, keep up his game all the time, nothing to do it for him, nowdays, not putting down anybody, but the computers take over alot of the work, the pilots loose that edge because they forget to use that something, instinct!!

In a nutshell, never forget what you learned even if camera’s today have all the bells and whistles to do it for you and I love APriority, but I also still use film from time to time, just to humble myself once in a while

I really wanted to do the sand thing instead of the unity candle… it just didn’t work out that way. I loved the idea though!

Hey Michelle,

Hearing “you’re not charging enough” from your clients is without a doubt the best indicator that you’re bringing Value to your clients, and possibly in ways you may not be aware of. I heard that comment from every single client I ever had (so far!), and I made sure I asked them SPECIFICALLY what it was they most liked in their overall experience with me. While there is so much that will play a role in our overall Value to our clients and the marketplace, I think it’s really important to keep tabs on what it is our clients like about us, what their needs are, and how fast we meet those needs. Do that consistently, and you’ll see clients willing to pay you a premium because of your reputation alone. It’s true.

And get to a Denis Reggie Conclave as soon as you can.
