Are you aware that you and others of your ilk have now proved yourselves beyond a shadow of all doubts to be nothing but inexperienced and ignorant trolls, again? Stay on topic, you ignorant and inexperienced know-nothing thread hijacking trolls. Catch-22. If you stayed on topic you wouldn't be a troll. Continue going off topic and you have precisely proved my point. Sucks to be as stupid as you, doesn't it. Read it again. Here it is again for your perusal. Can you answer it without your usual off-topic trolling? The challenge is on. (Guess who's going to win. Once a troll, always a troll. Asking a troll to not act like a troll is like asking a slug to not travel by use of its exuded slime layer discharge.) > >I sometimes wonder why people feel the need to make authoritative comments >on equipment they've never used, never touched, and never even considered >as part of their camera gear. > >There have been outlandish claims being made.

(Apostrophe left off of "bated" to see how many apostrophe-trolls are in abundance.) Since you failed to address or answer the question, there it is again. Any further off-topic trolling without addressing the question and you will prove, beyond all doubt, that you are nothing but an ignorant troll, again. It's just that simple. Sucks to be you, doesn't it.

Imagine that. If he could really produce 37,500+ "marketable" photos in a year, you'd think he'd have bought a DSLR by this time.

Just the opposite -- if you haven't needed a dSLR for that many marketable images, then there would seem little point to buying one. -- Best regards, John Buying a dSLR doesn't make you a photographer, it makes you a dSLR owner.

The successful craftsman would naturally have bought the more adequate tool long before reaching that number of efforts.

"Assumes facts not in evidence": (allegedly) more adequate tool, when the available evidence indicates otherwise. ;) You must feel very threatened. -- Best regards, John Buying a dSLR doesn't make you a photographer, it makes you a dSLR owner.
