Everyone has a digital camera, even if just their phone. Does that make everyone a photographer?


According to some here it does. But then again, what do they know?

Are we qualifying the definition of photographer now?

Better tell Webster.

How do you know you're not a successful photographer until you've used the best cameras?

P is the most basic as the camera does everything. M requires you to set everything according to the image you want.

To me P requires to understand how it works. M is simplest.

Some people believe one is not a photographer until one exclusively uses the "M" mode.

I believe a good photographer knows how each mode works, the advantages and disadvantages of each, and when it is most beneficial to use them.

Not quite true because usually user sets ISO. Even in ‘P’ mode my Pentax camera allows me to over-ride the settings if they won’t work for my setting.
