- The audio and/or video data acquisition device which I use at this moment is my camera. There are many like it, but the one which I am using now is mine.
- I must master my camera as I must master my life. Without my camera, I am unable to document family, friends, ideas, thoughts, and work. Without my camera it would be as if I never existed at all.
- My camera, without me, is useless.
- I will continue to learn its accessories, components, lenses, limitations, operation, settings, sights, strengths, and weaknesses. I will keep my camera and kit clean and ready to serve at a moment’s notice or after meticulous planning.
My camera is as important to me as the life which I lead. It is a constant ally, historian, mentor, teacher, and witness. My camera is a manifestation of the creator and destroyer of worlds as it can do both of these things. Learning my camera is learning ten thousand things.
- Like the woodsman with his axe, the rifleman and his weapon, Stelarc and his third ear, we have become part of each other. We are inseparable.
- Nikon D800e
