If you had a K-5 you could print it bigger, if you had a 645D you could print it even bigger than that. On 1/30/2011 4:45 PM, Ken Waller wrote: For those that think better equipment makes a photographer better (and assuming he would then take better images) I throw this out for you to tell me

You can always burn dinner in good pans. You can drive you Porsche into the wall. You can also drop drop your K5on your foot and break your toe. These are isolated incidents, however, and not averages across many situations. On Sun, Jan 30, 2011 at 5:07 PM, Paul Stenquist wrote: > Better equip

Re: Is photojournalism relevant anymore?

Wasn't is always? Most major papers worked on a "for profit" basis, and went out of business when they didn't make money. These days here are so many sources competing for your attention. Remember yellow journalism? Sensationalism has become the norm, unfortunately. On Sun, Jan 30, 2011 at 4:
