We have a son who follows everything the other people in the family do. When everyone bought film cameras, he bought one too. His photos were HORRIBLE. He would take pictures of a single person and that person was so tiny in the entire frame that it was hard to tell who it was. When everyone bought digital, he spoke of buying one too. I discouraged him as much as I could, telling him his film pictures were awful. He disregarded what I said and bought one anyway. Immediately he could see what he was doing and began photographing differently. Now, his pictures are worth looking at. A dramatic change because of the change in medium. And, he mostly does manual.
