“Photography has become so easy that a lot of students don’t realize how phenomenally difficult it is.”
In a world of Instagram, Hipstamatic and the iPhone, will anyone remember how to use a real camera in ten years? Do they actually realize how much blood, sweat and tears go into creating a beautiful photo?
The convenience and quality of the iPhone camera is arguably too good now, meaning young people don’t understand the pain of film. Do you remember losing a roll because you didn’t mount it right? I do. They will likely never experience that, meaning photos don’t have the same value.
