What is a good non-fancy digital camera? Between $150 and $250?
DELETE: EPIC FAIL. CAN'T MAKE AN OBSERVATION W/O OFFENDING PPL.

^^ That is a bit of a stretch. A more appropriate question would be: "If you have basketball shoes, are you a basketball player?"

He didn't say if you buy a camera you'll be one of the best photographers EVAR, but you can consider yourself to be one
Just like you can buy jordans and go to the rec, join a pick-up game and call yourself a basketball player

Well I said that specifically. But name a photographer, million dollars says they either show, tell, or write about their work and how it functions dependingon what it is and what it's for. We're talking about something quite broad. Like pick a photographer so I can talk in concrete terms/examples andI'd be happy to explain.

you definitely sound like an unemployed photog
but real talk I don't know why you care, technology is at the point where all you really need to do ispoint and click to get a good quality picture of someone or something, if your mad get mad at technology. If your a true pro you wouldn't even carehonestly because you'd be %*#+$+$ with 300k lenses shooting ferrari's for magazines, an amateur would never be able to shoot a pic like this becausethe chances of them having access to this type of camera would be slim to none, not to mention being able to operate it and get the proper lighting anyhow thisis one of my boys at a shoot enjoy

I just purchased a canon g9.... It is cheaper because the g10 just dropped, but I love the quality, and it is compact so you don't look like an artstudent.

Jesus Christ all I asked was a question. If I offended people my bad.
I am not a photographer. I used to be an amateur painter but I grew disinterested so I do know what it is like to have to put in hours, sometimes days to getsomething good and valuable. I hang out with a lot of photographers (most of them are overseas right now) and they have showed me what it takes to actuallyhave a good shoot. I'm not just making an assumption it was a good question and if you're mad too bad.

His point is that you are trying to state there is such thing as good photography, his argument is that who justifies this.
The last statement you made basically assured his stance.

^^Well matter of factly you can take whatever photographs you want. But no one is going to take you serious as photographer beyond maybe super commercial workwith no depth what so ever or just trite %+%+ anyone can do if you don't understand how your own images function and convey ideas beyond simply whatsthere. Even something still quite commercial like fashion photography functions this way.

That's what I'm thinking. One particular cat in the WDYWT thread has the wackest pics using his Nikon D40 I believe.
I know someone in here knows who I'm talking about. He didn't get salty, his boyfriends did though.
My sidekick takes better pictures than the results that he gets with thatNikon. I know its not the Nikon's fault cause that camera is a nice beginners level SLR. He just does not know how to take decent pictures with thatcamera which is sad and makes me and other people to believe he just wants to be in the "cool wanna be photography posse" but he sucks!
