Professional Studies

Now for my report I thought it may be a good idea to look into what type of camera equipment photographers carry around with them. I have been looking into buying my own lenses and even what the best make or model would be better. I did find this all very confusing and didn't know what to buy for the look I wanted as I wanted the pictures I took to be very clear and id be very disappointed if it wasn't the right look. So the idea came from Jill who mentioned about doing my report on equipment so I can see what photographers use. I thought that was a great idea so that's what I have based it on and I found it all very interesting and im really glad I have done it as I also found it very useful as well.

Professional studies



We had the police come in and tell us why we might be stopped if we are taking photos in the town centres or of places. They were saying sometimes as a photographer some places have top be researched and what time of days are the best time to get the best shot, the police were saying to look at the security guards or polices point of view that they are looking at someone moving about pointing cameras maybe even be laying on the ground and then they leave and are seen again at night with a camera. When you can see it at there point of view I understand why I would be pulled up and asked what im doing. To be honest I've never minded if I've been stopped and asked what I was doing I just see it as them doing there job, and I don't see the point of getting irate over it all that would probably make you look more suspicious. But I do carry around my college id round  with me as I have found anyone walking round with a camera becomes nervous even through one of my last projects I upset a lot of people taking there photo as they thought I was walking for the benefits office and was trying to catch people working. So I sometimes find it better to explain to people what im doing then come back when they are not expecting me but realise im not going to get them into trouble.
