And I also think, Adam that now what we are looking at is that is a state where we blur any difference between a journalist and a blogger. In every case the smart first thing to do would be to check they guy out. Search engine them...heck the source. Can they shoot a viable image which suggests they have mastered the use of ANY camera? ...if they agree with our present idea on the issue or not. Here we are dealing with a mindset which would rather that since they've gotten together seven grand to buy a camera a few years ago it will reign for many a decade. And the idea that there should be any issue with that then it's heresy. Its not about the work its about the investment.
