Seriously (and I am capable of that) I agree with you. You can screw up with a fancy camera just as easily as simple one. Analogously, if you can get good shots on the fancy one you can still do it on the simple one. If you always do better with the fancy one, then that just bodes ill for the simple one. It's not so much the range of features as that the 1Dm2 does the basic things well.

I don't know whether it makes any difference one way or another. While I'd had a couple of simple, junky box cameras before it, the camera I credit myself to learning the fundamentals of photography with was my grandfather's 1949 Rolleiflex TLR. What's wrong with learning on something that you know, in the last analysis, cannot be at fault for the errors in your photographs? It made me aspire to produce the kind of photos I knew the camera was capable of.
