>>4267040>"peak moment">t.Name any good art that was ever made by "catching the decisive moment". You can't. That's just snapshitting. Artists (like Gregory Crewdson) imagine and create the "peak moment". You just walk around with a camera taking random photos of NPCs strolling around your flyover shithole hoping you'll get something good.
I won't deny that zooms are better for snapshitting, but you can't deny that snapshitters aren't photographers. They're just button pressers with gear.
>>4267041Its really telling
>photographers: i need muh zooms and megapixels and full frame>cinema: everything is shot on primes unless its goyslop like avatar, because primes have fewer aberrations and give the DP more control (you can remove resolution later, but you can not add it). typical movie is shot as 2mp-4mp from a crop sensor, extra mile is medium format>photography: "a middlebrow art", some doubt it is art at all rather than a potential step in the process of creating art>cinema: universally accepted as high art
