Starting out.

That is starting out on this blogging game and not starting out in photography. I have been pratting about with cameras since the 70's, the internet since the 80's but this is the first time I thought to have a go at this game.

I am not about to make this yet another blog trying to push my ideas of what people should and should not do in photography. There are already enough people doing that to totally confuse anyone picking up a camera for the first time as it is.
I will offer some links and the odd bit of advice but I do not consider, even after 30 years, that I should be trying to tell people how to do things in the photography game.

No, what I am going to do here is vent my annoyance at the know nothing people who think they know everything or those who are picking up a camera (off course I mean one of those "big black professional" cameras) for the first time and a week later decide they are capable of "going into business".

Here is some news folks, the first lot don't know everything, they are only telling you how they do things and the second lot are nowhere near capable of running a photography business yet.

Just because NiCanFujSon inc. say their camera will let you take pictures like a pro, does not mean you can.
It is advertising, it is designed to get mugs to spend hundreds of pounds/dollars/yen/Euros etc on their latest  (the 15th model of the year) offering.
