Now, I am perfectly confident and comfortable in my choice of gear.
I do not feel embarrassed or ashamed. I also prefer to let my photos
do the talking, instead of the camera brand. However....sometimes,
I just want a good comeback. Something that demonstrates just how
brilliant and independent-minded I am in my choice, and how superior
it is. What do you say to the Canikon crowd to put them in their
place? I would like to have something ready to go when I go back
tonight for the start of the Creative Lighting workshop. :)
Christine, I am thinking that:
1. As a immediate response you might point them to
http://www.pentaxphotogallery.com and indicate that all photos therein
are made with Pentax gear.
2. As a midterm response you might have to bring in some of your
favorite photographs printed, say in A3 size to show them that the light
goes more or less in the same manner through you gear as it does through
theirs.
3. As a longterm response you might simply point out that it is not the
gear who makes the shot, but the photographer, so that if you give Canon
1D MK IV or Nikon D3S or whatever to a chimpanzee, it is unlikely to
produce stellar pictures just by virtue of the label thereupon.
HTH.
