You only have to look at his postings at Steve's - people *did* constructively point out issues with his images, quite pleasantly, but he invariably went ballistic with silly defenses of his images, rather than admit he had much to learn. He desperately wants to be worshipped, and when he doesn't get it, he explodes and exacts his revenge. On several different forums, he has taken such umbrage with his perceived enemies that he made great shows of storming off, telling everyone that they didn't deserve his help.

If nothing else, those examples demonstrate the strengths and weaknesses of a p&s camera. They can be good for extreme close-ups in good light, but they fall short when they are used for action shots or in very low light. And then there's print sizes. The best P&s/bridge/superzoom cameras can do 'quite nice' 13x19's, but when you get to those sizes and beyond, dslrs are very obviously better (even at base ISO, kit lens, bright light). If you add in low light or challenging action, the fat lady has sung. Frankly, if you are doing serious work at poster sizes, then you probably shouldn't be using 35mm format anyway - although the latest round of cameras are surely going to shake up the MF market. So we can only assume that Keoeeit has never seen a truly razor-sharp large print, and it is obvious by his postings that he has never shot anything decent or challenging in low-light, and doesn't understand the opportunities that good high-iso performance offers - I am reminded of this guy's work (warning - wedding photos!): http://cliffmautner.typepad.com/page/4/ Check out the high ISO shots (Nikon D3, several at 6400!) and the superb use of natural light.. But I'm sure Vern could squash those images flat with his dinky little S3IS. (O: The funny thing is, I use a bridge camera for ~95% of my stuff. I don't usually do wildlife/sports, and most of my low-light stuff is just for the family, so the p&s is ok. But if I was back in the weddings game... </quote> Sad sad life. I wouldn't have noticed, except the persistent replies from a few people have exposed the nymshifting idiot and I cannot filter those re-quoted troll posts out. Unless there's an overwhelming desire for others to stuff their killfile with "From:" entries, there's an easier way to ignore the idiot. Please email me for the details. Or If you have another filter that does not only kill the troll, but the replies to the troll automagically, please tell about it. -- SneakyP To email me, you know what to do.

Is this why the ONLY posts you reply to are those of the supposed P&S Troll? And then you even psychotically net stalk others who you insanely believe to be him too? Yeah, sounds like you really want to get away from this guy, don't you. "Knowledge may give weight,but actions give luster. And many more people see than weigh." Whatta MAROON! You outted your own self! LOL!

That's just his shtick, in reality he is learning a lot from everything that is pointed out to him. He's just one of those types that finds it difficult to admit that he does not know everything about everything. For me, the most amusing thing about our troll is how upset he apparently is that I have contributed to the documentation for the CHDK firmware for Canon cameras. I was a bit worried that he would remove the stuff I wrote, but then I realized that even though I've even posted the same text I wrote almost verbatim in some rec.photo.digital posts he has not figured out the sections of the Wiki that I have added to and edited.
