It's a plus for a graphic designer to be a good photographer but it's not a must.

I wouldn't say graphic designers are "good" in photography, yet the have a clear understanding of how photography is related to graphic design. They may not take the best photos, but they know how to edit them.

No, Graphic designers are not good photographers. A photographer has a different set of skills.It is quite a physical task since most of the professional cameras are very heavy.Graphic designers concentrate on creating a picture that is aesthetically pleasing as well as functional. They are skilled at typography, making creative layouts,colour theories and most important thing graphic designers dependent on taste.

Most certainly not.  Though graphic design plays a critical role in all media production the feilds are completely unrelated.

Ideally, all graphic designers should be good in photography because graphic designers are supposed to be good in combining colors and designs.  Unfortunately, not all graphic designers are graduates of a design course in school so not all have learned the background of colors, lines, art and design.
