Expensive vs Inexpensive.

    Picture this, 2000's...ish. I was shopping at the local Michael's for paintbrushes. "Hmm student or master. I hope I become a master someday". I thought to myself as I looked over the various brushes. In that moment lay a subtle thought. There most certainly must be a big difference between student and master, and you are not skilled or a master until you are using the master brushes. That is the goal!! HOWEVER, much like the brush doesn't make the artist. The camera also doesn't make the photographer. 

    Almost as soon as I got my first decent camera I was already looking at cameras with 4 digit price tags.

Then I saw this video....and others like it...

Before I go any further 

I am not besmirching HIGH-end cameras at all! 

If people didn't get those binocular wildlife cameras and take pictures with obscenely slow shutter speed; we would be missing out on some incredible photography!

Just do a quick google search and you will see what I mean. 

What I am currently learning is, play around and see what works for you! Not being a professional makes my decision super easy. 

 

iPhone's are capable of quite a lot as well!

Here are some examples!
