鄭中基27萬的相機 惹出一堆“羨慕嫉妒恨”

這兩天，一篇名為《震驚了！》的帖子在網上瘋傳，該帖爆料稱攝影界鼎鼎大名的“大神Tinyeyes”的真身正是香港演員、歌手鄭中基，該帖子稱：“Tinyeyes是當年Flickr上最優秀的徠卡相機攝影師之一，與日本的TommyOshima齊名，

Too bad, he takes down his flickr page.  The Tommy Oshima fellow is good.

I am not a Lecia person but the lens looks a Noctilux f1.0.  Anyway, that discussion is pretty lame, creative people can use anything to take a good photo.  shoebox pinhole cameras, expired film, toy cameras.

But someday I do hope to shoot a roll on bw on a lecia m6

His photos have that typical Leica look but if you look beyond the interesting subject matters, the composition itself is nothing out of the ordinary.  He asked people not to judge him on his gears, but I would say many reasonably able photographers would have produced the same level of work had they got the resources and opportunities that he had.

Maybe there weren't that many Leica users on flickr at that time.  But nowadays you can find photos that are much more interesting.

This comment comes up over and over again and there's some serious logical flaws in such arguments.  A skillful photographer with a cheap camera can produce better images than a newbie with an expensive camera does but for the same photographer, there are always tools that he would like to use the most  that would produce the kind of images that he seeks after.  Statements such as it doesn't matter what camera you use is pure nonsense.

The basics of the argument comes down to this: to produce a good picture, is the camera more important or is the photographic mind behind the lens more important?

With a good photographer, any picture that comes out of whatever camera will be at least reasonably good, if not stunningly so. With only a good camera, however, the photos that come out of it could be anything from photo of the year to utter crap.

So my vote says that the cameraman is the more important element.

Of course the photographer is more important, but that's no reason to discount that gears don't matter.  Sometimes you have two equally skillful photographers but the gears set them apart.

    I was referring to the related discussion regarding you need a expansive camera to produce good images.  I don't remember anywhere I said the camera doesn't matter.

What is the "apart" you are referring to?  Without some qualification, you statement is pure nonsense I would say.

    to catch the perfect moment, cameraman's sense Vs 10 frames/sec from a state of art camera. Is difficult to tell.

I agree with this.
I personally have never used continuous shooting ever in my life, but some people can fire 10 frames/sec and pick the best one out of 100.
