Originally posted by Wasp Why does any old SLR camera have to make a motor drive sound in movies? Even if it doesn't actually have one. How much film does the photographic hero go through with all that clicking going on? And why does he keep making wild adjustments to the focus?
I was just thinking about that earlier. No motor drive, but it sounds like there is one. And Our Hero never runs out of film. Then there are the movies with extras who are supposed to be photojournalists, but don't know how to hold a camera. And don't even get me started on scenes where someone puts a photo in the developer, watches the image come up, then turns on the lights while it's still in the developer.
