They are professional photographers, and they use real cameras, not those crappy minicomputers. It goes with the territory.

Meanwhile, I’d like to ban everyone from using their damn minicomputers to obsessively and obtrusively record/photograph every stupid thing they think is worthy, from real sports history (witness the Triple Crown the other year, when a bunch of hands are up clicking, rather than watching it with their own eyes), to kiddie graduations.

I miss flash bulbs.

Nothing like a pop of a flash bulb to drown out the camera click.

Then we had flash cubes for a quick 4 shot.

“Professinals huh,,, begone you little people with your pesty little iphone and Sony Alphas,,, We have REAL cameras,,, LOL

Hate to tell, but the camera does not make you a pro, and there are some folks taking some outstanding photos, videos with their little computers.

I will have to agree with the folks you on folks who stick cameras etc up in the air in the way,, but please don’t trash us “prosumers” and hobby photographers because we dont buy 5 and 10 thousand dollar cameras

I’m in the burn ward right now due to these over exuberant photographers lighting off my flash powder with their dang cigarettes.

You miss being at the event when you are recording it. You also tend to forget it unless you look at the photos.

Who was the guy who said “Be Here Now”? Looked it up: Ram Dass. He happened to be right about that.

They do not have to use those reflex cameras they never get printed at max resolution anyway. Those silly little computers can take hundreds of pictures in the time it takes that reflex lens camera to shoot one.

They used to use pencil and paper.
