Bring Guns to a Knife Fight..

Today's photography market seems to be evolving on a daily basis with new inventions such as the new camera from Lytro (light field camera) is going to change the way a photographer sees a composition. You can frame the shot, then refocus anywhere within the frame.

Photographers remember to evolve, or you will be left in the past... KodaChrome, Polaroids.. When gear becoming cheaper..newer technology drives down the prices of the older models. Cameras that used to cost 10,000+ dollars, you can know capture the same quality with a camera that costs a fraction of that price.

Notice I said Quality, because you can have the best equipment and still not be able to capture a good image. The camera doesn't make photographer, the photographer is the eye in the vision he wishes to create. What's your vision, wanting you to express.

Something to think about:

Price Comparison $2,300 (Canon) to $41,995 (Hasselblad)
21 MP vs. 60 MP
Canon EOS 5D Mark II Digital Camera (Body Only)
Hasselblad H4D-60 Digital SLR Camera

Do 39 more MegaPixels make that much difference? Well I would save the $39,695 and spend it on marketing. If no one knows about you or your business how many people are going to buy your photographs or book you? Food for thought photogs.
