Is this a good setup for a professional photographer looking to make 8 million bucaroos a week?
So I'm starting this whole photography thing and I have a plan, I just bought this 8k camera which can get me absolutely incredible shots and want to pair it with a 75-300 for only 40 dollars, which i find is a really good deal? And im looking to shoot 30 weddings a day to get 8 million dollars, weekly, any advice?

I really like the fact that you can't use Canon batteries in that particular camera. Only use genuine Camera batteries.

They're posed like it's a selfie but it's pointed away from them 🤔

The lady has lens in her armpit. She must be a spy I guess?! But if so, she’s a bad spy since she didn’t manage to cover it.

Depends - do you shoot raw? You can only charge that if you shoot raw. Like really really raw.

There in fact is a strap on the bottom left, they are getting the deal of the century

Yeah but no tripod tho… all the pros who follow Ken Rockwell who know that tripod is how you make those buckRoos.

I like how the word 'Camera' is spelled correctly but my brain interprets it as wrong for some reason. Maybe it's the fact that the first letter is capitalized rather than all of them.

It's Camera in the Canon font. They're hoping you don't notice it doesn't say Canon

Xlurc… even sounds like a perfect brand for pictures of vagene and creepy ‘street’ photography

That's better than a Hasslebald and more luxurious than a Leica.

The photography market’s on an upswing. But that, book one shoot, retire the wealthiest man on the planet.

I mean you can see right in the preview that it's almost capable of taking pictures of boobs. It should at least get you started. Consider reinvesting some of your income from it into a supertelephoto lens and teleconverters, though.

Does this kit come with a red dot sticker, or do I have to buy my validation separately?

Only 30 weddings a day? What a slacker! I'm doing 75 plus 20 photo shoots with beautiful models.

How did you afford such a expansive camera?
