[QUOTE="JDFlood, post: 144748, member: 11653"] I guess that makes sense. When I shot film, whatever would slow me down would result in better photos. But I could only afford to take a shot on rare occasions. Now with digital I am able to take as many photos as I want... And do. I probably average 200 - 300 a week. My skill has been increasing at an amazing rate. Which I attribute to the tight feedback cycle. Focus is seldom an issue, it's not like a skill... Or I guess maybe it is remedial skill. So I look through the viewfinder it focuses, and I can get to work on the composition, refocus if composition ally necessary... I guess to me, that is the fun part, what's it going to look like... Is the depth of field going to be right, what about symmetry. I'm thinking... It is not about the camera, it's about what it can do for me...
