Exactly where did she say that she was concerned with "do-dads", let alone *only* concerned with them? That is, unless you consider lenses, including L series zooms to be "do-dads". The only problem I can see that she might have is knowing which advise to listen to and which to ignore. Generally, if the message header contains "Ainsworth" in the From: field, it's well worth ignoring, as you rarely convey useful, helpful information due to your own bigger problems. As a former wedding photographer one would think you'd be able to offer quite a bit of constructive help rather than the usual destructive criticism you seem to thrive on. |

All the post talked about was "the stuff." I've got this lens and this thing and is this OK? All that crap doesn't matter. And after the hundreds of weddings I've done through they years, there's no way that I or anyone could impart much through a newsgroup message. It's been my experience that amateurs don't really want to learn how to do photography right. |
