THAT is the bottom line. HCB would have been HCB with a Brownie followed
by a Pentax. And you would still be Ted Grant even if we forced you to
use nothing by EOS1ns, or, Rebels, for that matter. They're tools,
damnit, and a really good cabinet maker can manage to produce some
pretty spiffy furniture with some pretty mediocre tools. Sure, having
"the best" tools - for you - really helps. But if you haven't got the
eye and heart/brain, fugedaboutit...
