Photography in the past was considered to be an art. You need to learn all about photography before you can consider yourself as a real professional photographer and you also need to apply the things you learned as well as take really good pictures. In the past, photographers learned about focal length, exposure value, film speed, shutter speeds and other photography stuff. Also, you need to use an old adjustable film camera as well as a light meter in order for you to know what kind of light settings you are in.
Also, in the past, you will need to learn how to develop films in to photos. Some people even converted their basements in to makeshift dark rooms while others just settled for the toilet.
Today, photography is still considered as an art but it’s really much simpler now. With digital cameras, you will see that photography is now about point, shoot, upload and print. You don’t even need dark rooms anymore as the photos are now stored as digital format which you can readily upload to your computer and print in your printer.
