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.
