Absolutely! In 2003 we were in Peggy's Cove/Halifax Nova Scotia. I was new to digital photography and the battery remained in my cabin on the Navigator. I was so upset because it's so picturesque. I went to the gift store and bought a disposable camera. Every one of those photos is on the wall in my home office. Definitely, the photographer, the ability to see light and compose - but the equipment does help.
If you are seiorus when you take your camera out, have three batteries: One in the charger, one in your pocket and one in the camera!
