I think this is true, the image, and the response to the image, is more important then the technique or the technical perfection of an image.

The Visual Science Lab: Examining Modern Mythologies about Camera Equipment. Part One. Intro.

The Visual Science Lab: Examining Modern Mythologies about Camera Equipment. Part One. Intro.

Equipment sanity! Worth reading and thinking about. I have to agree, but somethings, like the quality of the viewfinder and the auto-focus are still worth upgrading. I have been using the Panasonic Lumix G1, which is a very different kind of camera, this summer and love it. I sold my Nikon D700 and Nikon lenses, even if the quality of the files was amazing. It was just too large for me.
