        A good photographer also knows their tools that they would recognize when the shitty lens won’t work, but they also would recognize which budget options can get the job done.

          Not in a technical field. You shoot with a Barbie camera and I’ll use a hasselblad. Which will be better? “The best camera is the one you have” is bullshit.

            Well, the expression does come from an age where it was more commonplace that the artisan, the workman, the technician, would be making their own tools. Takes on new poetic meaning, in this age and economy.
