MY PHOTO SUPPLY STORE

2008.04.18


I got messages asking news and details about my equipment and my photosupply dealer.
I still think equipment is not that important if there is not the awareness of what photography means and how much a photo can impress public opinion.
Should I remember the impact of My Lay massacre (reportage published by LIFE in the 60's) or "The Unknown Rebel", the famous shot taken on 5 June 1989 by photographer Jeff Widener, depicting a lone protester who tried to stop the advancing tanks in Tiananmen Square?
By the way, to answer all the questions, I use to go and shop to Max Photo, a tiny place in Rome.
Nothing extraordinary but owned and managed by a very honest, trustwhorty guy.

DancingDolphin Interesting shots... all the 'stuff' and 'color' give them lots of energy.

You are right about the photographer being more important than the camera with regards to the outcome of a photo!

Pejodream Però ti tratti bene come macchine fotografiche. IO sono ancora affezzionato alla canon PS G5 e S1 con visore girevole., ma prima o poi passo alla reflex 35 mm. digitale : è che non ho più voglia di girare con 4 kg. di obiettivi

Ciao e complimenti

mintra It's always good to have a shop that is good and that you can trust. There are not many of them about these days, espacially in big cities.
Nice post, thanks for sharing.

carmitage And now I am jealous ! I can never get answers to my questions when I go to my camera shop, they are a bunch of ignorants or don't care about their job.
Canon EOS 40D, is that your new camera ? :-)
