being lactose intolerant hella sucks. i ran out of my lactaid milk and didnt remember so i had served myself a nice big bowl of cocoa pebbles, and had to use regular milk, i even took a lactaid pill but my stomach is still growling right now.

[BeerRun]

Let me guess, you're a bro and hang with the corniest of the corn?

^no way, I did the EXACT same thing...

i hate digital SLRs and how they have turned photography into a medium that was primarily about taking interesting/beautiful pictures, into a medium in which photographs are judged based not on their content and composition, but on what hugely-expensive body and lens they were shot with (since everyone takes the same shitty pictures of city architecture and "candids" of pedestrians these days).

[countach!]

^my interest in photography has slowed because of this. Seeing alot of people go out and buy expensive equipment then fancy themselves photographers because their blase shots have alot of technology backing them up

Nowadays i'm looking for the most archiac camera I can find to really test my skills

I hate them too. But mostly because I can't afford them. I'm having fun with my Yashica for now.

Techology is good for its intended purpose. In the case of DSLRs, it allows you to learn & make mistakes without the cost associated with film. If anything is to be criticized, it's that people are generally not picky enough with their photos. I throw away about 95-98% of my shots (well, because I suck). Yes, people have expensive DSLRs that they don't know how to use. Yes, people take lots of shitty pictures and show them to everyone. But DSLRs are one of the best things introduced to photography in a long time.

[artificialsky]

digital slrs may be great for photography, but I don't know if they're good for photographers.

I am completely against the marginalization of skilled trades by "hobbyiests"

these days anybody with creative suite is a designer, and anybody with a two-grand camera is a photographer, and anybody with final cut pro is a director, and anybody with a blog is a journalist. I could go on and on.

[countach!]

^But I think that when compared to an enthusiest that has the experience as well as talent to back their skill, hobbiests are decisively inferior. Alot of people may be messing around with artistic mediums, but their interest won't last and I doubt they will commit the time necessary to compete against a professional

man....i was flipping the channels and saw that kaya show on mtv about some rockstar chick. man, does that show suck! the plot is confusing, the camera keeps moving around, and characters keep flipping opinions. hope it gets cut.

I love my Yashica T4. I'll never go digital. I don't hate digital and I know it is a learning curve, but I don't like how it looks like.

Fuji 1600 or 3200 black and white is all I need!!!!!!!

I know you hate me (and anything related to me), but what kind of stuff do you shoot/what kind of equipment do you use?

The ones with true skill/talent are still in demand, appreciated, and get paid handsomely. If anything, rather than being marginalized, they're easier to identify.

It's hard to define. If you are reputable, having good representation, or are well connected in your particular field, getting good visibility in your industry will be much easier. Skill/talent can definitely be marginalized by the fact that if you refuse to do a job, companies can just find another joe blow who'll do it for less.

Though I do agree with what you're saying to a certain degree, but there are other factors involved past the talent/skill/vision of photography... that unfortunately make a bigger difference than we'd all like it to.

I agree completely – there are numerous factors to consider, and many of them don't favour skill/talent. By the same token, I dis-agree with this rather simple/linear equation :

acess to tools == increased mediocrity == marginalization of skill/talent
