Wow. The editor in me is really having fits over his site... And not giggle fits either. If I had to guess, I would say that English is not his strongest skill. Always strikes me as sad when a "professional" can't take the time to have their content edited or at least proof read before showing it to their clients.

Just my $0.02.

he's an engineer... what do you expect (no offense to those of you that are, but engineers do tend to gravitate towards photography... and most don't exactly have what it takes, both personality, talent, and creativity wise to cut it, ALTHOUGH SOME DO!) and this guy is no different.

lol what a moron.

Since I have a 20D and a 30D, their combined resolution is 16 mp. I'll use that.

Mostly true, except that engineers usually aren't morons. In addition engineers are usually anal (the best are borderline OCD) when it comes to the specifications of their gear which this guy clearly isn't. Hence in spite of his claims to be an engineer I suspect he probably isn't.

my eyeball is part of the photographic system and it has a continuous image sensor that takes in all visible light with an enormous range of contrast and color (it's called a retina). So, realistically, my photosystem (rebel xt + human eye) has, like, inifnite megapixels. Aren't you jealous of my equipments?

Based on his calculations, the Phase 1 back would be a 44MP if it were interpolated. It's still better than the 1Ds, no?

I guess he also doesn't understand what the word "portfolio" mean. It simply talks about the type of work he does, no show-quality work.

Kevin's Philosophy

Require You Nothing But Just Act Nature with Your lovers. Kevin's Artistic Images Are Taken in The Most Nature Ways to Reflect Your Wonderful Characters. Looking at Photos of Someone, You'd Feel Characters and Feel Emotionally Moved by Them.


Translation

He requires your nothing but just act like you would in nature with your lovers.. Kevin must use a camera made of grass and sticks to have a nature camera. but it can only take pictures of characters... so no people just words...

Feel characters.... Kevin is blind and uses bralle. and is quite the sicko to be moved by a bunch of bralle characters...

Kevin needs a pet or girlfriend or friend or shrink or something...

ahhh a good laugh..

Its not that. When a guy posts that kind of BS on a website he has to be prepared to take any crap that is dished out. And intentionally overstating the megapixel count is nothing but deception to the "unknowing". To us, its sadly humorous (excuse the oxymoron please)

Professionalism includes honesty and truthfulness. When someone like "Kevin" exagerates his equipment, he is being dishonest and untruthful and is behaving like a disreputable used car salesperson. This does not help the profession, and people here are correct to ridicule him and try to persuade him to stop behaving so foolishly.

Do you feel better about yourself for defending some guy who's blantantly misleading his clients with total BS about his gear ?

If you want to put what your gear cost, thats rather tacky, but still honest, but flat out making up things is a different story.


You want to shop at a butcher who's giving you choice meats and telling you its USDA prime ?

You want to pay three times as much for mobil one synthetic oil but have the mechanic swap out some bargin grade stuff ?

Please tell me how you would defend them as well ?

What does the mechanic put a magic pill into the oil to make it last 4 times as long so then he's not lying ?

I think it is the fact that he blatantly lies about his gear and thus is probably lying about his portfolio... once a liar always a liar...

today it is gear tomorrow it is the pics he shows to clients the next day who knows.

I am ashamed that he is in Canada...

wonder if he is on FM...

hope for his sake he is not...
