Be careful - he might have a screw loose!

I see no grounds for justified criticism of anyone first taking shots in 'Auto' or 'Programme' in order to get an indication of iso, aperture and shutter speed then using the information to set the camera manually. This may also give scope for tweaks in order to provide a better outcome. Some purists may disagree but I say 'One man's meat..........'

One man's meat...... As they say!

Looks unnatural, contrived.

You would think common sense and decency would apply; unfortunately not everyone possesses either in sufficient quantity to apply them objectively!

Never look at a photographic/camera magazine the day after you buy a new camera; the planned obsolescence gremlins will cause you grief!

If you've got a lot of Canon kit logic says stick to Canon. I can't see any advantage in changing horses and it could prove very expensive with no real gain.

The radiator is on a WW1 lorry. There is a twist to this one inasmuch as the picture shows a union flag in the background and the Maudslay family was connected with the establishment of the Standard Motor Company of Coventry, founded by Reginald Walter Maudslay. Standard was once one of the 'Big Six' British car manufacturers and also manufactured Ferguson tractors. (Flag - Standard - Get it?). Standard once supplied engines and chassis to Swallow then SS cars, the original names of the Jaguar car company. In 1945 it absorbed what was left of Triumph Cars (not to be confused with Triumph Motor Cycles - hived off previously) but later fell on hard times and was taken over by lorry/bus manufacturers Leyland which itself later became part of the British Leyland Motor Corporation, now only a memory.

As with most things especially adverts - If it sounds too good to be true it probably is!

Don't look up the latest camera or computer the day after you buy one or other. You'll only wish you had waited!
