In reading this thread, it's amazing how much of it I find irrelevant. Not the comments. I've enjoyed those. Very insightful people on this forum and in this thread.
But more at the notion of photography being "dead". It may be for most others in the world. Dunno. Strange space to be in when everyone has a camera in his pocket. But for me...the way I live my life...if a day goes by when I'm not shooting and learning more, I really regret it (and the winter's rough for me that way). This is the only 2022 that I'll ever have...and I've got a few cameras and a pile of lenses. And it's going to be a great year for photography for me - dead or not. (Just got back from a winter Yellowstone trip.)
And the other thing...a certification? I need someone else to tell me whether I'm adjudicated worthy to shoot? And I've got to be a master of Photoshop to be a shooter?
Maybe I'm getting old. But I just don't give much of a darn what others think any more. I care lots if I'm getting more and more keepers...and that the keepers are getting better and better. But the rest of it? Nope. Not a bit.
YMMV. But you all have cameras and lenses. You've all taken remarkable shots. You've all improved with time and work. That matters. Not much else does.

I get mildly annoyed when people post photos online and specifically point out that it's SOOC or "unprocessed" or "just used the Lightroom defaults, didn't touch it otherwise." As if that's somehow superior. It's not a contest to see how few sliders you can touch, it's trying to make the best photograph.

While you're tweaking, this phrase is missing something, I think.
"consider donating renewing your donation"

Switch moved to front position is 125x, to the rear auto. Should be able to see it in a little window on top of the handle, right behind the shutter trigger.
