Luck is the by-product having the best equipment.


More importantly the ability to understand how to use the"best equipment". In one of his books, Bryan Peterson, a professional photographer, and author indicates you can take great photographs with any camera.

How do you know you're not a successful photographer until you've used the best cameras?

I have to disagree Paul. Nobody needs the best and the the most expensive gear to create beautiful images.

That's why it's a joke.

Some of us will never know.
Myself included.

I'm glad to be only an amateur photographer. I don't tell anyone what they should buy. I have bought all of my equipment used. I had an Olympus camera I bought new that went kaput so I found a used one at KEH for a little over 50 bucks. It is a little older model but it works very well for me. I had a Canon camera I bought used with an 18 to 150mm lens but I gave it to my granddaughter who is taking a photography class at college. I also have a Nikon camera I bought used, which works very well for me. I am satisfied with the quality of pictures I get from these cameras.

Don't you enjoy photography more, not always worrying if you actually got the "best" equipment?

There are no limits to what you can accomplish when you own the best equipment.

Pick any day and review the discussion in the Main Section, both the questions and the replies. My point is proven true day after day after day.

[edit] I took a moment to review your topics created. The truth of my words are there on display in that list too. So, I 'know' you better than seemingly you know yourself.
