Been involved in photography for most of my life, from my first Kodak Brownie at age 8 to the massive DSLRs I use from time to time, now. As was the case then, and is much the same situation now, my focus has been on producing the most interesting pictures I possibly can, with as little fuss as I can muster. And, choosing the right hardware to accomplish that task was always a predicament. When I first turned from film (using both Nikons and Canons) to digital - my first choice was a Fuji bridge. After that, I sort of staggered between alternate bridge cameras, and Nikon and Canon DSLRs, even adding a few Sony alpha DSLRs along the way, and even a Pentax or two - primarily, as my favorite film cameras had been both my Pentax 6x7 and my RB67. I am still discovering digital, and I guess I will keep doing so - for many years to come. Every once in a while, I start to think I will never attain the kind of res I managed to get from those cameras, or even from my 4x5. Thus, I read with great relish, when another company comes up with an even higher MP count. I didn't even KNOW you could get 100MP with digital! So this forum has been an awakening to me, of sorts. But, being a realist, I also KNOW I could never afford such a beast! As has always been the case, I've always been interested in achieving the highest performance from my work, with the least outlay. Seeing these figures of $6000 thrown at me, for a single camera, or lens, and I know this kind of thing is OUT of the question! I would NEVER involve myself in hardware which would cost more than my house! It's kind of the brick wall I have. So, reading things like that article from the guy who sold the very most copies of ONE picture, taken with a 16mp Olympus - always amuses me. And, I have a friend who's made a fairly profitable business selling her pictures taken with a Nikon Coolpix P-500 (just like mine.) So, I would like to see more from the people who are in the process of evolving in photography - rather than the Holier-than-Thou snoots who just want to dazzle you with how many Nikons they have or how much they cost. Do you know how silly you sound? ... Listen - I am very anxious to hear from those of you who are making money from your work using a minimum of equipment. I don't care if you are a Nikon or Canon enthusiast, or are using Full Frame or smaller sensor cameras. The important thing is - making whatever sensor size you prefer - count, with every shot.
