AboutMartin Seymour Expertise I have worked in most aspects of still photography, using film and the wet process for 50 years. Employing all film formats 35mm to 8x10 sizes, I went over partly to digital cameras in 02, also PC editing of pictures.
I still find film work more demanding , as you have to get it right at the start with no auto settings on the camera to cover my mistakes.
Pictorial work is my personal interest.
Its is not a good idea for me to suggest a particular make of equipment just a type, and its uses.

Answer Hi Jennifer
Hi
Interesting thought like the car take away one component and the rest are useless. But for me the focusing of the lens is probably the most important. If you can't get one subject in a group sharp then the whole shot get a bit point less. You may not be aware but on some cheaper camera you cannot focus at all, the makers have fixed the focus distance at about 1.5 metres, this keeps the cost down a great deal of course
But makes the camera very limited to some one wanting something better.
