You missed the point. You told me that with DSLRs you don't change lenses...

Quite a shocking statement for someone who...

1) Says you cannot learn from books
2) cannot learn from courses
3) is about to write a book to teach us all.

I do not have any ambition to teach people here how to do anything and consider our site to be on the fringe of porn...

If people ask for an opinion I will willingly add my 2 cents....

You have this theory that there is a subject separate from photography and film making call porn. I would only agree in the same way is making a western is different from making a romantic comedy. You have to approach the new subject with a degree of inteligence.

I do not understand why on one hand you want to tell people how much you know about porn but brag on how little you know on photography or film making. You live in a country with a great photographic and cinema tradition and beautiful woman. Would expect more.

The book would not cover new equipment but should it not cover basic technical / artistic principles ?

F stops, shutters speeds, exposure, ASA .....Key lights / fill lights, color tempreture, Wide angle lenses, long lenses perspective, history of erotic images religous painting to Movies

A example could be the importance of a Matt Box and how by stoppng random light entering the lens and lowering the contrast and quality of the image the picture can be improved.


But I gather people are happy doing what the do...

So opening the university of porn may be premature
