I've heard that some of the pro shooters out there feel differently.

So......Composition.....Shoot it right at the time or dial it in at post production?
it's always better to let the camera do the work however you deal with every situation in the best way possible. I shoot in a high pressure environment. by this I mean I have a small window of opportunity to gather the material I need to meet my needs. for instance the other day I had 3 hrs total time with a model for $500 to capture 6-7 sets, 2 solo mast vids and bj. the model was so sore from a previous shoot with a large boy that she could barley touch herself. the shoot went 22 min long, the agent called up screaming and yelling and cussing 'cause the model had another scene to do . . .

so what I do is gather as much material as I possibly can and sort through it later, due to my shoot environment.

a glamour shoot might run 8-12 hrs and only about 500 images are captured, a magazine shoot might go 12 hrs with each shot talking as much as 1/2 hr.

these glamor guys have the time and resources to carefully compose each shoot. I don't. hopefully this answers yer question?
