RE: Overcoming Limitations As a Photographer 📷
Hi crimsonclad, thanks for sharing my article. I absolutely agree with you, the real problem with that old camera was the autofocus speed that would lead to a lot of missed opportunities. I simply used ISO as a convenient example to represent the technical limitations that we're faced with as a whole.
I really believe that noise in an image is a fairly small problem, as you said it can be used creatively to good effect. I also completely agree that it is the manner in which you choose to portray your subject that is of the most importance. Having your own creative vision and being able to convey it effectively is far more essential than having a great camera or lens. (I believe videographers call it mise-en-scène)
Thanks again for sharing my article and also for sharing your personal insights. Cheers : )
For sure. My favourite lens is an antique Sigma that's slow as hell and has a horrid back focusing problem, but I just can't quit it. It's followed me around the world like a faithful puppy.
Ha, I'm sure there's a word for the strange affection we develop for inanimate objects. If there isn't, then there should be.
I intend to resteem your Beach of Bones post by the way, but I've already resteemed 3 things in the last 24 hours. I'll probably do it a little later tonight or tomorrow some time. Some thoughtful images you've taken there.
I think there is a term somewhere, but the connotations are a bit unsavoury.
Thanks kindly! The amount of great photography around makes my head spin. I think I'm going to enjoy it here. :)
Wow! "It took me a while to wrap my head around the fact that the scene is what the scene is, and the way that I choose to present it is what's important." I like how you said this. It made me think more about my photography. Im following you now @crimsonclad
Gosh I feel so good right now knowing theres a lot that I could learn from here in Steemit about Photography.
