40 Years, 1 camera and 1 Lens

There's decent money in that if you hook yourself up with a couple local offices. Of course, now EVERYONE'S a photographer with their little Powershot. I used to make a little money shooting houses for sale, till the office bought a digicam and never looked back.

If those houses were in California, you probably couldn't buy one today for under $400,000. 😛

On my Canon 5D I often find myself using one lens too: Canon 28-300L 😀

Since I bought the 100mm lens for the Bronica, I have used only that. I like the slightly long focal length. Especially for street shooting. It helps because I don't have to get within swinging distance of the subject. I also tend to have trouble framing my work properly - always with too much peripheral space. 100mm helps.

I like the idea of shooting with only one lens. I think you'd get to know the lens so well that you'd really see things in whatever focal length.

We're semi-actively looking for a new house, and as we view the photos of properties obviously taken by estate agents, we often have to laugh (or gag) at the quality. I've done the real estate photo gig in the past, and I know agents don't want to pay squat for a good set of photos, so I wouldn't get near that market again. But really, these agents with the digi-P&S jobs are costing their clients (and themselves) money.
