And what's more is I think there's a bias against good equipment in the 'art world' and against knowing how to use it. Kind of a righteous primitivism. Though I do think it's possible to make good photos with an awful camera, or a simple one--just like the old blues guys made wonderful music using old beater guitars. But bad tools aren't a prerequisite by any means!btw I'm convinced it's always better if you start playing a good instrument as a beginner, not a crappy one. You may not be able to afford a good piano/guitar/whatever as a learner but purely for skill development it's better to have a quality instrument.
I suspect the same applies to photography and cameras, but many people think the gear doesn't matter.
