2) No! In my experience great photographers are not really very intelligent.
3) No! Better equipment does help taking better pictures but the photographer is the same not better. That is there could be a great photographer but takes lousy pictures because his camera is too bad.
4) What rude comments you're talking about? What that has to do with photographer good or bad?
In response to #2, the best picture taken of anyone in our family, ever, was taken by my niece and she is a blithering idiot.
