Folks who have a DSLR camera as a fashion statement and not know how to use it and stick with the auto focus setting.
It just means you're getting a higher resolution of a crap photo that you could have taken on a point and shoot, you dill hole. The dill hole is happy taking several crap photos a second on auto that fill up my hard drive in a matter of weeks. How about a Bobs DSLR camera beginners tips thread? |

Re: Pet Peeves?
Modern cameras.
Years ago, we had a manual SLR camera, Pentax K1000, we had it about thirty years and we took brilliant pictures with it though I say it myself. Then we gradually moved to point and click digital cameras and the K1000 stopped working properly, probably just needed a cleaning or something, anyway we stopped using it and now it is seized up or otherwise defunct.. Bloody camera we have now, doesn't even have a viewfinder, just a screen on the back. If the weather is even moderately bright and sunny, I can't see anything on this screen. It might as well be completely blank. Plus, all I can use the camera for is totally automatic pictures because supposedly the thing has a menu system but I can't make head or tail of it.. I took 199 pictures on my trip to England recently, most of them were in the OK to mediocre range but they were all based on total guesswork. |
Re: Pet Peeves?
Overly complicated and automated appliances.
I prefer simple, straightforward and ability to manually pick all options. |

Get a Pentax K5, then. It's a modern digital slr but it works the same in principle as the K1000 with the added bonus that it takes all the same lenses as well.
