All right the thread title was a bit tongue in cheek ,just look though at what this guy does with a Canon SX50HS.

Another example that it's not the equipment necessarily, but a willingness to learn, practice, and just get out there taking pictures.
Even from the earliest days of photography, the camera has always been, and always will be a just recording device. It is the person behind the camera that makes the difference.
A skilled photographer can make outstanding images with a simple camera and a hack can go out and spend over $10,000 or more on a D4 and a bunch of lenses and STILL take crappy images.
The only real advantage of SLR technology is seeing in the viewfinder what is going to be captured on the film and same applies to a DSLR. There are other advantages that have been created by the camera makers along the lines of features and glass that have kept the reflex cameras ahead of other digital.
When EVFs look like OVFs under all lighting conditions, there won't be much reason to want a digital reflex camera. When a camera maker can make more money pushing the non-reflex technology, DSLRs will get expensive, and most people will opt to leave the platform for less expensive cameras that can do the same, excepting the folks who think expensive cameras make better pictures.
Gives me an idea for a challenge.

This line of thinking is really concerning me that my nice camera may not be able to capture great photos and that my brand new high end stove will not make me a great chef. Tell me this isn't so!
Don't you just hate it when that happens???
Having used both and now having a hybrid viewfinder, i am not sure what you mean by, "...seeing... what is going to be captured...". The EVF on my camera is WYSIWYG (What You See Is What You Get). Therefore, if i make adjustments to the exposure, i will see that in the EVF. I can switch to my OVF if i like, but i don't see the changes that i make, but i can always test/verify with the EVF with a flick of a switch and my EVF is 100% coverage.

That V2 has got you thinking I see
