You shoot with a Barbie camera and I’ll use a hasselblad.

Takes on new poetic meaning, in this age and economy. permalink fedilink source parent [–] bugbear@lemmy.sdf.org 1 point 2 weeks ago Yes, a Barbie camera won't have great pictures. You know very well "the best camera is the one you have" isn't talking about Barbie cameras, though. permalink fedilink source parent [–] jumping_redditor@sh.itjust.works 0 points 2 weeks ago sure, but if I want the color sensitivity data for the photosites you either need a camera with that information already known or to measure it yourself. permalink fedilink source parent [–] dream_weasel@sh.itjust.works 1 point 2 weeks ago No, but a good used lens and an older camera body is plenty sufficient for good photos especially if you can edit worth a shit. You don't need some new mirrorless body and some crazy lens that lets you take aperture down to f/2 that is brand new to, for example, . I'm confident that with my old canon EOS 5D Mark 2 I can outshoot any hobbymom who spent 5k on Amazon today for something new, and anything the camera can't do is accomplishable in Darktable. permalink fedilink source parent [–] bountygiver@lemmy.ml 1 point 2 weeks ago A good photographer also knows their tools that they would recognize when the shitty lens won't work, but they also would recognize which budget options can get the job done. permalink fedilink source parent [–] neuromorph@lemmy.world 0 points 2 weeks ago What do you think photoshop is for? permalink fedilink source parent
