A "pro" can also make the most out of their equipment, regardless... A less skilled photographer would likely not do as well, even with the most "pro" level equipment. Even a Holga could be appropriate as a part of a wedding suite of photos. Maybe the bride and groom want a primitive style photo, or one that is different from the conventional wedding portrait. I am not against high quality equipment, I just don't believe that just having it will make someone a "pro". Jerry in Houston - This message is from the Pentax-Discuss Mail List.
