Why i love to use old DSLR cameras more than modern. 📷steemCreated with Sketch.

Many photographers think that they really cool professional photographers, only if they handle most new and modern devices to use them for work. I belive that modern cameras and acsessories are preatty good, but those devises start think instead of us more and more after each release. Most of my photography time i use old half-sized sensor cameras and want to tell about the reason why.

1. First of all, i belive that modern cameras have lot of options you will never use

2. Modern cameras has to many megapixels which leads to problems with sharpness and everytime you need to use stabilization or tripod. Size of pixels have influense on sharpness and picture size - (when you take picture for big posters). Pixels, i belive, is also a marketing trick.

3. Modern cameras more automatized, you never need to use you brain to get to understand light better.

4. Full frame - smaller focal lenth (will work only with expensive fill frame lences support)

4. One of my best modern camera is Canon 5D MarkIII only.

📷Why i use old half-sized DSLR cameras? There is fiew reasons:📷

1. They not automatized like modern ones, so i have to use my brain to think about light and positions. I love use my brain.

2. It has smaller pixel size, so i can take more sharp pictures (for printing of regular size), then do not use stabilization at all. 

3. It has better color tones.

4. More longer shutter life (My first Nikon D100 passed nearly 500 000 shutter releases and works well)

5. Cheaper.

6. You will not afraid to drop it.

7. Smaller file size

8. Great picture quality if you know what you do, same or similar like full frame.

Thanks for the sharing !

Good that you liked it. My opinion is that no camera takes pictures, but photographer himself.

Even way back some of the best phoots had been taken by a 'box brownie?'.
Imagine Capt Scott and Shacelton using modern gear, instead of sleeping with the gear to kep it functional in the cold.
