Agreed! But to say the kit has no bearing on the matter is equally wrong in my opinion.

No amount of kit is worth anything in the hands of someone who doesn't know how to use it. But a D3 with 500mm prime opens up possibilities that simply don't exist for the guy with the Sony Cybershot (or even me with my D300 and 80-400mm zoom for that matter).

So no, it's not all down to the kit. But it is partly down to the kit.
