Hi I agree,
I have tons of gear (I shoot canon, and have like 8
lens fisheye--300 2.8), and I posted a panorama shot
that I shot with a 4meg. hand held digi camera, no
tripod-mono(stood there and spun on my feet), and it
came out pretty darn good, done this many times, so
needing the equipment that's expensive is not needed
to get good results, just like many things in life,
it's the operator not always the equipment that can
make a project! Remember the Jamaican bobsled team!
Use what you have! Ansel Adams did lots of great stuff
with what he had!
