what he doesn't do is illustrate his decision with one half descent picture! Certainly nothing that I would deem National Geographic worthy!
unlike you. a self proclaimed critic who has not shown a single picture.
Bob Krist is a freelance photographer who works regularly on assignment for magazines such as National Geographic Traveler, Smithsonian, and Islands.
...now i would really like to see some of your images guys.
you know something that shows your DSLR´s are superior.
...but hey why i ask... mr. and mrs. anonymous on the internet sure know better than this guy.
Bob Krist's accomplishments and talent aside, this thread has examples of a kind of pseudo-logic I always find interesting - the idea that only those who are themselves highly capable are entitled to have "an opinion" about anyone else's performance.
Do you have an opinion about the president of the U.S.? (Have you ever been a successful president of the U.S.?)
Do you have an opinion about Rap music? (Are you a recognized rap musician?)
Do you like/dislike some paintings in a museum? (Are you an accomplished painter?)
Do you have an opinion about pants hanging off a**es with undershorts filling the waist-leg gap? (Are you acclaimed as a fashion critic?)
What do you think of breast-feeding in public? ( Oh, wait, have you ever been a mother with a child to nurse?)
Do you think some pro quarterbacks are very good, and some less-so? ( Answer only if you are one of the good ones. )
...ad infinitum ( or nauseam )
