Do Cameras Matter When Taking Great Photographs?

August 14, 2013 by Paul Salmon

I enjoy taking pictures with my digital camera, possibly more than the average person. I have been upgrading to better equipment over the past year, mainly buying the more “professional” series of “L” lenses from Canon. I am also hoping to one day upgrade my Rebel Xsi to a 5D Mk III, but since I had just bought lenses, a new camera will have to wait.

While I have been upgrading my equipment I have also wondered if my photographs will improve because of the improved equipment. I mean the new lenses have tremendous image stabilization, quicker focus, better glass, and much better sharpness. Even with all the tremendous improvement, will that show in any photographs that I will take with the new equipment compared to my previous lenses.

Of course, the same thought applies if I were to finally upgrade from my current Rebel Xsi to a 5D Mk III. Asking the question of whether a camera matters when taking a great photograph is one that is debated online, and probably has been debated for many years.

You can get overwhelmed by paper. In years gone by there may not have been an alternative. It was a matter of cramming filing cabinets and, ultimately, in finding more space. Some documents are still required in hard copy form but others can be kept in a different form, while still containing all the data in its original form.

One of the most important elements of any picture is the lighting. It can affect, in both good and bad ways, the colours, the perspective and the quality of the photo. Learning how to properly use lighting as your advantage will improve your pictures for sure. So, we listed some helpful advices.

Combat the problem using high ISO. The ISO is managing the amount and sensitivity of light falling on your sensor. There is one huge disadvantage when using ISO and it is the noise. Still, there are some possibilities to improve the quality of the picture. One of them is to use a software such as “Neat image”. And still, in digital photography noise will always be something to consider.

Does Your Camera Matter When Taking Photographs?

February 26, 2016June 7, 2013 by Paul Salmon

One of the great debates online regarding photography is how much a photograph is dependent on the camera. As with any debate there are two groups: those that think a great photograph is independent on the camera, and those that think a photograph can be better with a better camera. To me, a great photograph is not one that is taken by a great camera, but one that is taken by a great photographer.

It seems everyone is an amateur photographer nowadays with the advent of cellular phone cameras.

As anyone who has done it knows, photography is one of the most satisfying and fulfilling artistic endeavors one can apply themselves towards. There are very few things that can do what photography does: it makes you see the world in an entirely new perspective and makes you more aware of the world around you.

There are not many art forms that can say that in the most literal sense. At the same time, photography is arguably also one of the most daunting art forms, because people tend to not know where to start.

Even the very first step, buying a camera, can be a daunting task. There are many questions that a beginning photographer has, but very few ready answers. Photography is one of those things in which you learn as you can, you learn an answer only when the question comes up.
