I can’t wait to see what the D4, D800 will bring.

I saw this time after time in illustration classes in college. People with little to know artistic skill taking courses because they thought it was something you could LEARN. These courses should be for artists that already possess the aptitude to be a good artist.  The same goes for what one should consider a protographer and one that is simply a hobbyist that gets paid. 

This videos are good because they show how ALMOST pro tools can now be in the hand of normal people. Thus bridging the gap between the Chris Nolans and the potential Chris Nolans. Those of us that have the artistic blood but not the crazy awesome gear, are seeing we are that much closer to achieving the look we have longed for but could not afford when starting out.

Tech shooters will always be that I suppose. They need the newest phone, tv, pc, camera, mini copper with the apple sticker on the back, and newest all in one tv remote. Tech is their hobby but you get more props claiming to be a photographer.

People that trash digital and will only work with film have a lot of eye opening to do. Unless you are shooting a major motion picture, you can’t beat the budget cost of shooting dslr. If you can keep your cost low, you can bid out the contract much better than your competitors and still come close if not meat the expectations of the commercial client.  We all have seen (or should see) The Book of Eli. That truly displayed the power of digital on the Red system. Yeah the camera made by the guy who made his billions from making Oakleys.
