Taxi drivers earn their living by driving - but F1 racing or LGV/Lorry/truck drivers would not consider them so, and you need the right gear for the job. ...But world renown professional paiters may not be so insistant on using the best brushes as the well-healed amateur. Journalistic photographers use equipment simialar to what most amateurs use... but I would like to see more postings about use of equipment that enables some listees to tackle assignments impossible with simple, "Journalistic" equipment. This is a small market, but there are not many photographers who have the equipment and technical aptitude required. Try an oblique view of cut glass and silver items on an engraved antique silver tray with feet, with everything sharp and no blocked or burnt out shadows or highlights. =============================================================== GO TO http://www.prodig.org for ~ GUIDELINES ~ un/SUBSCRIBING ~ ITEMS for SALE
