If Camera Brands Were People

Likely the most controversial topic in the photography world is which camera brand is best. What if you took those brands and personified them into a conversation with each other?

This hilarious parody piece from Mango Street will put a smile on your face no matter what brand of camera you use. In a polarizing world where everyone has a specific opinion on the best choice, it's nice that we, as photographers, can all come together and not take things so seriously sometimes. As a Canon shooter for most of my career, I felt they very accurately described my experience out in the world. It's a fun reminder that life doesn't have to be so serious all the time and to not take brand affection so personally. 

If I were to add another personality in here, it would be the film shooter who complains about film prices, scanning processes, and how important the tactile feel of a physical medium is. Maybe even throw in how only true artists cannot review their photos and that the best camera ever made comes from decades of use.

If you were to make this video yourself, what would you do differently? Did they miss any quips or personality traits you experience excessively within the different camera ecosystems?
