Taking great photos, like many professions and hobbies is influenced primarily by the operator's skill and experience. However, I believe gear matters. Your gear should never hold your creativity or performance back and in order to achieve a certain "look" you need quality gear. My goal with videos like this is to simplify the decision making process for anyone in the market for these products.

Let me know if this video was helpful, if you have any suggestions for future videos, or disagree with my conclusions.
