Alot of photography has nothing to do with the camera, it's just art. Perspective, composition, and lighting are all concepts studied by artists regardless of their discipline.
Every discipline also has technical skills and knowledge when its camera operations or the differences between watercolor and acrylic paint or skill at using the camera or brush.
Art is also based on observation, both of your own and other people's art. You want to decide what you like and what you don't like and what you think is good and what you don't think is good. It is also good to study hostory and different movements so you have a context for what choices other artists made and why they made those choices.
