Well, sure, we are agreed better tools are better. The best tools one can
afford is best.
It's just a really good camera in the hands of a poor photographer will
produce poor pictures.
Poor photographers rarely have the money to by really good cameras, and will
generally have to make it quite a financial priority in their lives to
manage it.
However, presuming you meant bad or untalented photographers...
....Thats not necessarily true, a really good camera (in the context of
modern digital or film cameras)should produce a technically excellent
product under most every condition with little or no intervention from the
operator.
The camera industry has spent the last 25 or more years perfecting them to
this end.
It may produce uninspiring pictures in the hands of a "bad" photographer,
but that is another matter.
A bad camera in the hands of a bad or average to OK photographer will do the
same thing, BTW (produce bad pictures, that is), and will cripple any
attempts to get better.
