Proverbial Wisdom

 

Back in the day, the Fujifilm S4200 was an entry level digital 'Bridge' camera. The S4200 had just enough bells and whistles to whet a newbie's appetite, with enough quality, to produce a great image once you learned how to get the maximum out of the camera. 

I had owned the camera for nearly a year and had more than 5,000 images in the bank when I took this shot. It wasn't too long after this shot that I upgraded to a Sony Alpha a58. 

I should also mention that this was cricket season, and I had been trying to get this quality of image for more than a week.

The S4200 taught me a simple lesson, the old proverb is right - a good carpenter doesn't blame their tools!
