    I did a three-year photography course squeezed into a year of training as a combat photographer; we shot our penultimate assignment which was scary; we had to open a business telephone book at random and drop a pin on the page, where it landed we had four hours to get a feature shot for a magazine cover, using all the kit given. We ran out the doors, and all completed the assignment; it was tough. The next day was the final test, and we had to hand in all our digital cameras. Then we were each handed a 36-exposure wedding camera, film, and the type you find on the centre table, and prints were made. We had to repeat the assignment from the previous day to different local businesses. The first part was convincing the business we were not taking the piss, and we duly shot our assignment improvising lighting and suchlike, We all passed, the exercise was to remind that its not the camera but the person holding it. On an overseas job, my primary camera had a firmware meltdown, and my emergency FujiFilm point-and-shoot came out with no discernible difference in standard. That exercise gave me the confidence to be a better photographer and not be limited.

    This was an excellent "Amateur vs Pro" competition because Mike's camera was truly amateur and Jess was not hindered by the camera being "too much".
    I seem to be alone on an island, but I think Jess won easily. Mike's pictures were basically the snapshots that camera is designed to take. Jess took advantage of the lens to find interesting angles. The picture with the clouds reflecting in the car door [14:55] is my favorites.

    I have seen so many such videos and it's clear that skill plays a role. But what I really wanna see is 2 amateurs using a pro and non pro camera and then see the difference.
    Yes skill is important but when you are starting off and learning to shoot a decent setup will take you farther than just using a point and shoot or a phone camera.

  • @pacocreates
    @pacocreates 16 дней назад

    Wonderful photos. Judging from some of these comments, I thought her shots were not going to be good, but she did some amazing shots. This goes to show that equipment makes a difference in quality when you are that extreme of a difference, but nothing will ever trump natural talent and that eye for a good shot. Because even with that little camera, you killed it with those shots! Great job, both of you!

    Very interesting, but a bit unfair:
    - the 1 MP camera does not allow any settings => an old camera, where shutter speed, aperture and focus can be set manually would have been better
    - the Sony will produce minimum ok pictures with everything in the program mode => setting everything to manual would show the real photography skills of an amateur

    I like the idea of a competition rather than just a random pick for the prizes, but I feel like only people that already have good cameras are going to win. There's no way somebody using a normal phone is going to win against a top of the line camera. Just could be a bit more suited to beginners that will benefit a lot from the prize cameras.
