Didn't you know? Everyone with a camera or a cell phone is now a photographer.
I like that old Clint Eastwood line about "knowing your limitations". That can also go for knowing your camera's limitations.
A really good shooter and a really good camera can do wonders, but remove either from the equation and you don't end up with the full picture.....maybe a half-ass picture?
My limitations? We don't have room here to discuss them, but send a self addressed envelope, $20 and a 50# bag of exotic nuts and Otis will give you every tiny detail.
Regards!
