If you were to write a digital photography tutorial...?

What would it explain and why would you choose that particular subject?
I agree, I try pretty hard to qualify my answers and provide good advice / alternatives and not just a buy this or do that response. I also try to input a little humour... which often falls on downwards thumbs! :)
You gave me a very difficult choice, thanks for your positive ideas... I'd love to see those articles!

I would probably write a tutorial on how a user should select a camera to suit the needs and objectives that they can define, then I would supplement it with one on basic functions of different types of equipment (lenses, flash/lighting, filters, etc.

I would choose these topics because I sold cameras for many years in the B.D. (Before Digital) era and one of the most difficult problems that people encountered was figuring out which camera was appropriate. I was sometimes shocked by how people wasted their money buying the "best" and then never used the capabilities they paid for or bought a specific camera because their friend got great pictures with it and never considered the type of photography their friend did. (The best still life camera is usually not ideal for shooting horse races, etc.)

I am also surprised by the lack of alternatives that many "knowledgable" users provide here on YA!!! They seem to be unaware of any merits to choices other than the ones that they themselves have made. And the answers that are given often don't even address the basic question asked, or worse, deride someones choice or recommendation without explanation.
