More on photo quality

I thought the mogmog thread regarding image quality was fascinating.

I read the Pentax SLR and the Sigma SLR forums mainly.

I would say that the posted images are rather similar in quality.

There are some very, very few very, very good ones, there is a bunch of good ones (mostly overrated by the forum members) and then there is common stuff (also overrated by the forum members).

There is an unhealthy percentage of flowers in the garden, dogs, sunsets, bugs, birds, etc, etc ... if the aim is outstanding photography. But ... if its a social meeting place ... why not.

You have to remember that this mainly is a gear place. And many of the images are shown to make a point regarding the camera.

If you are really interested in outstanding photography then you shall go elsewhere. There are fantastic sites on the net.
