In reply to nullvector, 6 months ago

The worst I ever get is the occasional lecture, from a guy at my church, on why Zeiss lenses are better. I've found it's best to just not talk photography with him, because no matter what you may say, his opinion is better. He's one who subscribes to the "the lens makes the shot" mentality. I say that a good photographer can take an excellent photo no matter what medium is used. One of my favorite shots is from a busted old A530 P&S.

I love cameras of all shapes and sizes.
