This is all true, but do you know how much their stuff costs, and how often it has to be service? Many times I have gone out with a camera crew (on what is considered a small-scale shoot) and our equipment, packed into one vehicle, has been worth around $200,000. A DP who buys his own camera is going to be laying out the same money as a small house. Not even leicas are that expensive. - -- Johnny Deadman photos: http://www.pinkheadedbug.com music: http://www.jukebox.demon.co.uk
