Is a sailboat a traveler? No, unless someone steers it from point A to point B. The same is true with the camera, or Photoshop for that matter. They are all tools for someone to convey his/her intentions. There are so many factors to consider in photography as we all know. Is the camera lying if you place a red filter to shoot the blue sky. How about a fast-speed film (or powerful lens) freezing a shot at a 100 mile per hour speed. Or artificially spotlighting an object in a room that's dark. Dodging? Burning? High Saturation, etc.. Although I don't condone nor like guns, I don't think it is a killer until someone puts bullets in it and pull the trigger. + We haven't talk about stylists yet - using Elmer's glue as milk, and mashed potato as ice cream... :-)
If you stage or prepare something for photographic reasons, then that's EXACTLY what the camera lens will see. The "camera does not lie" statement still applies here. "Lies" only happen in postprocessing.
it does, sometimes...=P
ReplyDeletecamera is optics and therefore there are illusions
ReplyDeleteParallax error.

hehehe...bakit kaya napasabi to ni Meann :-)
ReplyDeleteNo such thing as never.
ReplyDeletea camera misinterprets,the editor manipulates..thus a picture lies;-)
ReplyDeleteLying is a human trait. The camera is not human.
ReplyDeleteNo, it does not. The lies come after the photo image is taken and goes through Photoshop.
ReplyDeletesabi nga in a James Bond movie...Never Say Never Again
ReplyDelete*talks to my camera*
ReplyDeleteyou better take a nice picture of me and I don't care if you have to lie about it!
hehe!
yes, point kc equipment sya...
ReplyDeletebut, isn't it also possible (like in the olde days) that one manipulates the pictures without Photoshop?
ReplyDeleteso basically even during the actual taking, during the actual development of the film (if its a film cam) and post processing, pwede ibang images...
also, the mood or story of the picture is not just the camera's view...depends on how it was angled, presented, cropped etc.
*sabi ng camera: tapos you say I'm a liar? my feelings are hurt!*
The camera records what the lens sees. Anything can be done to the image after that.
ReplyDeleteCamera Never lies but the Photographer sometimes do lie.
ReplyDeleteor before..like staging something to look what you want it to be...or even sa photographic plate?
ReplyDeletecould be also the beholder, baka iba nakita nya sa photograph :-)
