Back in 1979, I was stationed near Fairbanks Alaska. I was a proud owner of 3 Olympus cameras. An OM1, OM2 and OM10. Took a photography course through the University of AK.
All were film cameras. The one thing I remember the instructor saying is "You should be happy if you get one good shot out of every 10 you take."
On the OM2 camera, I had an auto winder. If memory serves me right, it would take 4 to 6 shots per second.
I got invited to go on an incentive flight in an USAF O-2 aircraft. Being an Observation aircraft, it was idea for taking pictures. I took 12 rolls of 36 exposure, color film and all 3 cameras. Out of 432 shots, I got what I considered, eight Good pictures. It was quite expensive to to get them developed.
Nothing like being young, dumb, single and not much to spend your money on other than a hobby in the middle of Alaska.
The bad part is I have no idea what happened to the pictures.
Gave my daughters the cameras. They lost interest quickly and lost the cameras.
Now I use my phone to take pictures of things I take apart so I'll know what it is supposed to look like when I put it back together.
I've taken a few drone pictures, but nothing too exciting.
Photography is fun. There are many different types. I helped a gentleman unload his $30K telescope, that you can only look through it with a computer, and take hours to set up. He showed me some awesome pictures he took.
Then you have people with 3 foot long lens on their 35mm camera taking pictures of nothing but birds.
Then you can get lucky with your phone and get a very decent picture.
I guess what I'm trying to say is, photography is a hobby that takes practice (or luck) to get very good results. And you can spend a little or a lot of money.
Like RVing, it's not for everyone. Just my 2 cents.
