The lens is where 10% of the magic is. Camera = 2%. Photographer = 88%...
88% or 99% for photog is fine with me.
The other percentages however may have been like that back in analogue times when cameras not much more than "film holders". In digital imaging, camera with sensor, processing/imaging pipeline (hard- and software) and AF system plus post processing (software and skills) are key to get image as desired in the first place and have it look as desired. Lenses are still important, but with ever diminishing weighting.

hanks to computational photography we will (hopefully) be freed entirely from having to buy and carry big, heavy expensive ground glass shards in the not too distant future. Writing's clearly on the wall already. R and Z are basically CaNikons last ditch efforts to sell expensive cameras with big, expensive lenses ... before it is game over. Yes, still a few years to go, but not too many.
One of the reasons why I want more modest, compact, decent IQ [not "stellar" or "fancy"], affordable lenses. Not inclined to spend lots of money on big, expensive glass that will serve as nice paperweights soon enough.
