A bad photographer will take lousy pictures, irrespective of which equipment they are using. A good, experienced photographer will be able to take good photos with the most minimalist equipment under the right conditions. A lot depends on the intended medium of display. If all you do is take pictures for web display or 7"x5" prints to pass around amongst family then you really don't need any high end equipment.

There's far too much emphasis on the minutiae of equipment in most forums. Thankfully WPF seems to be concentrating on composition and general technique which will make far more difference in the long run.
