What does make a difference is still the photographer's ability to anticipate a good photo opportunity, see the desired outcome in advance, compose the shot properly, and choose the camera settings to capture the scene you want. That said, I do believe from my own experience that Nikon and Canon are both better than Olympus at taking photos with the camera set on automatic. However, now that I know my camera, I'll put my work up against anyone else's work. I almost never use automatic, but then I have studied film photography since the late 1970s. If you know how to make it work on film, you can probably make it work even better digitally.The Gare Bearhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03309827718124626536noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10271530.post-50492037708268320522008-09-23T21:13:00.000-05:002008-09-23T21:13:00.000-05:00While Canon has decent cameras.. you might check o...While Canon has decent cameras.. you might check out Panasonic's Lumix line. I had bought a Canon a570is last November... and already replaced it with a Lumix TZ5 back in July. I love the thing to death... the 10x optical zoom was the first thing that made me stray from Nikon and Canon compacts. They're worth taking a look at, anyway.hockeyfroghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08010117356695565433noreply@blogger.com
