Don't take me wrong here as in flaming, just hard facts from a photographer....
I gots ta tell ya. If you have never taken some kind of course or instruction in photography, you got no business knocking even a cardboard film camera.
You cannot just snatch up a camera and start snapping off at random and expect a $10,000 camera to take great pics unless you have some kind of inkling.......
Without knowing the principles of that the metering system is trying to do, how auto focus works, what to expect in lower light as far as shutter speeds and moving subjects, forget it. If you get a good pic with any camera feel lucky.
I see shots here from a moving vehicle through a wndshield hand held....... funny. Kids are the toughest especially in low light. They move so fast most pros know they better have at least 1/60th a sec shutter speed just to freeze a kid at a party. And then if in low light he has to jump through other hoops to make the 1/60th make use of the light.
Some of us don't realize what we are asking form a camera.
Then there is the Auto mode we are stuck with in a phone cam. Auto mode gives a cam thousands of choices to choose from, including what to focus on, what to pic for white balance, f/stop, ISO, shutter speed and more and it has to pic one in a split second or we scream "Shutter lag", "shutter lag!"
When I knew I wanted to get into photography I was steered to a community college course that cost $65.00 for 4 two hour classes from a super talented instructor. The class was captioned as "So, you want to know how to take pictures". The prerequisites were only to have a camera with you. Any camera, large or small.
It was fun and everyone in the class was enlightened and more excited about shooting.
Heh! 99% of the time humans take bad pics.
