What would you do?

[joescrivens]

Not that hard to understand I have "children" NOT kids

oh right I didn't realise you were just being pedantic about a word, thanks for letting me know, i can now ignore that comment

 

[Eddzz!!]

What a ridiculously off-topic thread.

lol, even wished you'd not used a four letter word

Still very interesting video and replies (both on and off topic)

How many billin is the world population, and we struggle to feed everyone now, wow controvercial as ever I am

No Jeremy. Controversial is making a general comment regarding world population and the number of children people choose to have. Saying it in reaction to an individual member's post about the size of their family is disrespectful, rude and uncalled for.

I think you owe Tony an apology for that one.

Quite an insult to parents such as I who have brought up three sons with it and know what we are talking about :nono:

How can it be an insult? When it's the truth. Ritalin is well over prescribed

Seems to me that too many parents use ADHD as an excuse for poor parenting. Far easier to lay the blame elsewhere.

It would be interesting to see how many cases of ADHD there were when I was growing up in the mid 70's, and parents actually bothered to knock some sense into us!!!

Could you all please respect other people's views and experiences and get back on topic to the OP's questions about having too much Photography gear around?

I understand his points all too well, I have several cameras, two of which are dSLRs, but when I need to quickly grab a shot I go for the fastest easiest camera to use - a LUMIX PnS.

But, part of my love of photography is my love of the hardware, the technology (even if I don't understand it all to the fullest). I really enjoy owning and handling well made gear, I enjoy the aesthetics of good design and ergonomics.
Of course, I also enjoy it immensely when I can get excellent pictures. If I limited myself to one camera only I'd be missing out on some of the other things I enjoy.

Also, I like to think that buying new and additional gear helps the industry along a little..

So, what would I do? Whatever comes natural of course. Unless you do it for a living, photography is a hobby - it's personal and we all have our own reasons to be into it..

Cheers and Merry Xmas to all from down-under

Agreed, apologies.
