Some of you guys are delusional to think that this guys work has anything to do with the type of camera he is using. Its about the creativity and the ideas. And knowing one's limits and pushing them every time you shoot. Respect the work, dont assume that it is "easy". If it were that easy the caliber of work would be everywhere.

And for someone doing heavy editting and not making them a photographer, i think thats a big problem. Post Processing has been apart of photography ever since there was photography. I have spent much more time in teh dark room, than i ever have in photoshop or lightroom. Comping images is not a new inventions, we used to do it with film and cutting cookies to block parts of teh photo paper to get the right image to expose, etc.

To me, Commercial Photographers, are everything that is what photography is, from conception to product. They see what they want before they even setup light or take an image. They are Creative Directors. Its like saying George Lucas isnt a film maker because he uses too much post.
