Not so. I've seen the results when using black tape. The resultant photos always appear sharper and better focused. This is because black tape absorbs stray light rays and ill-behaved photons. The tape, when properly applied, can also hold camera doors shut, secure loose and wobbly lenses, and give the photographer a sense of pride that leads to more confidence and, ultimately to better pictures.
