Is that what you call your IT people?

For the longest time it was all 35mm with a variety of lenses and filters. The past couple of years she's been getting back into it full bore and she's gone digital. The shops she has dealt with in the past have or are doing away with carrying 35mm cameras. They've told her the future is in digital photography. <br /> <br />The advantages are undeniable. She can take hundreds of shots a night, download them onto the computer and quickly print out proof sheets. Images can be burnt to CD and dropped off to the newspaper the next morning. Hundreds of pictures can be uploaded to the website without having to scan them in. Years ago hours would be spent running them down to the photo lab, waiting for them to be processed, organizing and dropping them off. The development costs and prints, much less the duplicates would quickly add up. <br /> <br />Digital cameras are very awesome. However, good photography is more than just having the right equipment.
