Photographer Vs Camera

Dec 2007
Photographer: I've told you many times before - Its not about the camera..
Skeptic: (interrupting) It is ! you cant expect great photos from a cheapo camera.
Pgr: Thats not true, you dont always need a full-frame dSLR to shoot interesting photos..
Sk: ok, do u think you can use you phone's 1-2 Mp camera to shoot some?
Pgr: Yes, why not? Errr...But it has no autofocus, no zoom, no shutter speed control, no ISO control, noisy sensor...
Sk: See, I told you ! Even you dont seem to believe cannot shoot cool pics with a simple camera.
Me: No.. ok gimme a few months..
Wife: I can wait..
