Anyone a member of any photo associations? What are the benefits to you personally for your associations? Are they worth joining?

I've gotten a few solicitations to join some local associations...

None of my photo teachers are gear heads, though they all are experts on some of it.

I think there is a point about the two types of people, often to describe computer people or techphiles. I...

Over 10 years, millions of dollars could mean $100K a year in gross revenues...
