If it's just for fun it's not compulsory, but your images won't be as good as if you took some time and effort

PS - I sometimes never get a reply LOL LOL
Basically Acher, youre quite right, I should apply myself more to do justice to a good camera and try for the very best image, thinking through what it is I want to achieve with a shot etc etc, plus digital has also made me lazy, unlike using my old SLR and kit.
I often go back and shoot again when annoyed with results, when I can,and its always much better!
Interesting responses - you can see why I'm not sure either................
Cheers, thanks all,
Ken
