>>2600751Thats pretty much every single thing you shouldnt care about. I know the names of maybe 3 famous photographers off the top of my head and i dont give a shit.
You should be AWARE of basic tech specs (raw better than jpg, etc) but nobody asked you to buy a 50mm instead of a 135, thats your choice
I "only" own a 7D with a 35mm, doing everything i can with that (i dont have much €€££$$). Insult me all you want, hurrrff look at thia poor shit, durf; im doing alright compared to gearfags with thousands of£$€ worth of gear
Ignore the insults
Learn from the criticism
Accept the fact 99% of your shots are plain bad
Criticize/give feedback when asked
Let it go, give up that false hope "im already good at it! Mom look!" and become actually both a better photographer and a better person
