Re: They are improving for other brands as well, for a good reason.

Yep - people often tell me I must have a good camera when they see my pics, as if the camera did all the work.

As for lenses, people who do buy lenses too often buy a slow "super-zoom" - even posters on here who ask for advice end up buying a super-zoom (even though nobody advised them to do so).

Heck, even the pro photographer (local guy who takes pictures at YMCA and schools) uses a slow super-zoom for portraits...crazy.

It's only crazy if you aren't getting the photos you want!
