You're right. I guess my point was that many people blame their lack of high end equipment for the poor photos they take. The high end equipment will give them higher technical quality (resolution, noise, etc...) but they could still end up taking the same out of focus, poorly lit, poorly framed photos they were getting with their old cameras. (I'm not speaking of anybody in particular in this thread, I'm speaking in generalities)

Agreed Dave, and the reason we should hammer it out here.
Its really not rocket science but there is a lot to making a properly exposed image that we can discuss. As to having an inate eye for composition and knowing when to trip the shutter, well.....that's inate. ;-)

Yeah, there's nothing like having that "eye", but there is a lot that can be learned about composition and lighting that are fairly simple. A couple of classic styles of each (and breaking a couple of common bad habits) can make a big difference in the average product shot.
