No, the photographer makes the shot. wink [/b]
And a good lens makes that shot better (quality-wise). wink

I've seen some pretty crummy shots from an aesthetic or compositional perspective taken from $4k camera bodies with $5k lenses. I've also seen some stunning photos taken with 3MP point-and-shoot cameras. However, when it comes to the technical quality of the images, the former wins in almost every case.
Yeah, you're right, but I wanted to rant about all the people who see a great shot and immediately ask, "What kind of camera do you use?" Like it composed the shot itself or something. laugh
