[QUOTE="aroy, post: 306323, member: 16090"] Every one has what it takes. It is a question of whether you want to or not. With me, photography has been an on-off thing. Started fifty years ago (I am 63) with my father's Russian range finder. We used to shoot and develop B&W at home. Had a portable enlarger then. Stopped after four years. Took up photography after 10 years with a second hand Russian Zenit. Upgraded to a Zenit "Photosniper" which came with a 300mm F4.5 lense and a gun grip. The camera gave up after five years. Photography stopped. After nearly 10 years started again with Cell phone. Still shoot with it (from VGA to 3MP to 5MP now). My son got a D70, used it for a while. Then a D300 used it sparingly, as the 5MP cell phone sufficed. Now in the last few months using D3300. As I have plenty of time to spare, I am shooting away at an average of 100 shots/day (varies from 5 to 300). If I get busy again, then may be the DSLR will have a rest, and cell phone take over. The camera may differ, but taking photographs has become a part of my life. Once you are hooked to photography it is always there with you, and with time you will find what you like best and excel in it. [/QUOTE]
