Nikon:器材才是王道
香港在刮颱風的同時,Nikon的官方facebook頁今天也刮起一場公關風暴——要拍出好照片,攝影師技巧重要還是器材本身重要?布列松拿起小相機仍是攝影大師,但拿起數10萬的Nikkor鏡又真的會人人變大師嗎?
會!當然會喇!最起碼Nikon——或者是Nikon入面一位負責更新facebook的員工這樣想!今日較早時間,Nikon在其官方粉絲頁上說了這樣一段話:
「A photographer is only as good as the equipment he uses, and a good lens is essential to taking good pictures! Do any of our facebook fans use any of the NIKKOR lenses? Which is your favorite and what types of situations do you use it for?」(擁有好器材才能當一位出色的攝影師,要拍出好照片就一定要有好鏡頭!我們有facebook粉絲在用NIKKOR鏡嗎?你最喜歡哪一顆和在什麼時候用呢?)
一如所料,這番在攝影界裡典型「政治不正確」的說話,在有近90萬粉絲的Nikon頁一推出就引來了1400多個「親切」留言,大部份都將Nikon批評得體無完膚。下面是一些回應:
I can’t take good photo because i can’t afford D3x
(我拍不出好照片因為我買不起D3x)
Somebody should get fired for this very unfortunate statement from a reputable brand like Nikon.
(有人應該因為這段不幸的言論而被炒)
Nikon why did you post this dumb question? I purchased the best lenses and camera that I could afford. If my pictures are crap then I know its my fault. The masters can take stunning images with a box brownie and the best camera is the one that you have with you at the time. There I feel better now
(Nikon為什麼你要貼出這段弱智問題?我已在能力範圍內買下最好的鏡頭了。如果我的相片拍得糟那是我的問題,但攝影大師即使是拿餅乾盒也可以拍出好照片,最好的相機就是你的身邊的一部相機呀!)
I am glad that I am using Canon
(幸好我是用Canon)
筆者剛剛登入Nikon粉絲頁,入面已經是粉絲滿滿的憤怒留言。Nikon應該如何收拾這場公關災難?
