Yes. But you will not get a job with a major studio. Do your own projects or find local people who are interested in film and buy a camera. I have a Canon XL2 and that's what I do.

OK I am going to answer this question again but differently. I am a professional photographer and I have a couple college classes but no degree. I also make very good money at what I do in this career field. So besides the fact that only a few jobs require a college degree... and a college will tell you that you will never get anywhere in life with-out a degree. Reason .. no students, no money coming in to college... NO rich Dean. So if a image is posted on a website can you tell if a person: 1. Is a "Pro" ? 2. Has a college degree? 3. How old is that photographer? Are they 7 or 70 years old? There are different photographers in the world there are the ones that it's a 9-5 job shooting "portraits" at (K-mart, Walmart etc), then there are the photographers that treat photography with a passion. To them it is not just a 9-5 job, to them it is more like 24/7. In other words when you are not doing photography as "your real job" you are still doing something in photography. This could be getting ready to do some body's wedding, a model portfolio, testing your studio equipment lighting or getting up at 2 in the morning driving 200 miles (alone because others think you are crazy) climbing up a mountain to get some great shots of the sunrise and then driving back home. That person will be reading a photography book, the camera manual, a blog, manufactures website to see new equipment, working on a website and adding new photos.. or they will be teaching somebody else photography in person or trying to explain it the best they can on a place like this (yahoo answers). So what type of photographer are you.. and what type do you want to be? I hope this answers some of your questions, you can also look up one of my previous "answers" to this question on my profile page. Good luck, Kevin

Most of great artists did not have a degree!
But, their desire, knowledge, capacity, wealth (in all forms) in cooperation with their zeal made them super!
